True, but that's why my initial question was whether or not an attempt
was made to exit the aircraft, e.g., unlatched canopies or harnesses.Â*
The posted report made no mention of either yet it did mention the
wearing of parachutes.

There was also no mention of losing wings, etc.Â* I believe the report
said that all of the aircraft with the exception of the vertical and
horizontal tail planes was found at the impact site.

There is nothing easy or trivial about jumping out of uncontrollable glider. You might be lucky with g-forces or not. Glider without tail can loose wings in quick succession, and then you don't have time to do anything anymore, no matter what the altitude is.
