Would it not have been better for the pilot to stay in the cockpit
untill rescue crews arrived?
Obviously in this crash as in many others involving gliders the chance
of spinal cord injury is great. I would think that extracting yourself
from the cockpit would increase the chance of aggravating any injury.
