Glider accident while filming commercial in 2011. NTSB Report updated
the video is heart wrenching. my condolences to friends and family.
I was thinking, the flight is not unlike the second half of a very low pass which has been known to cause another accident in the recent past. Unfortunately done at far too slow of a speed of just 70mph for such a low altitude "pass". Just not enough energy for the pull up and maneuvering back around for landing.
