Strange crash |
| Kazakhstan, april 2006. Pilot was rather experiensed. He had not put the nosecone on and pulled the glider too far. The sail was filled out. Glider started the PIO. Dive recovery might have been affected by unattached VG, which did not engage the luff-lines compensator, i.e. luff lines did not work. | |
