Karl-Erik Övgård was a Swedish glider pilot born on October 2, 1915, in Södåkra, Småland. He set multiple gliding records, including a Swedish endurance record of 21 hours and 46 minutes in 1944. Övgård studied wave phenomena and tragically died on December 18, 1951, during a soaring flight at high altitude in the Sierra Nevada. After reaching an altitude of 10,600 meters, he suffered an oxygen system failure, leading to his death from oxygen deprivation. In his memory, an annual award for gliding performance in wave lifts is presented in Sweden.
