In aviation, a controlled flight into terrain (CFIT; usually / ˈ s iː f ɪ t / SEE-fit) is an accident in which an airworthy aircraft, fully under pilot control, is unintentionally flown into the ground, a mountain, a body of water or an obstacle.
Controlled Flight into or toward Terrain [1] – deutsch gesteuerter Flug ins Gelände oder darauf zu (meist kurz Controlled Flight into Terrain oder CFIT) – ist eine Kategorie von Flugunfällen, bei denen ein voll steuerbares Luftfahrzeug von der Besatzung gegen die Erdoberfläche oder gegen ein Hindernis geflogen wird.
Controlled Flight into Terrain (CFIT) refers to accidents in which there was an in-flight collision with terrain, water, or obstacle, without indication of loss of control. The critical distinction in these types of accidents is the fact that the aircraft was under the control of the flight crew at the time of the collision.
Controlled Flight into Terrain (CFIT) occurs when an airworthy aircraft under the complete control of the pilot is inadvertently flown into terrain, water, or an obstacle. The pilots are generally unaware of the danger until it is too late.
While air travel remains one of the safest modes of transport, controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) continues to remain the second leading cause of commercial aircraft fatal accidents (loss of control in-flight being the leading cause). The factors leading to CFIT events can be varied.

Essentially, CFIT occurs when an airworthy aircraft under the control of the flight crew is flown unintentionally into terrain, obstacles or water, usually with no prior awareness by the crew. The FSF-led international CFIT Task Force, created in 1992, set as its five-year goal a 50 percent reduction in CFIT accidents.
Data source: Global Aviation Data Management Accident Database eXchnage (GADM ADX) Loss of control inflight (LOC-I) and Controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) accidents continue to be the main source of fatal accidents. This presentation focuses on analysis of CFIT accidents from. Global perspective.
