Default Seminole Lake Accident

Sounds to me like another case of a student grabbing the trim instead of the brake when trying to "park" the glider off the side of the runway.

Witnessed a japanese student do this and hit the gazebo and trees destroying the last blanik.

I guess there isn't going to be anything left for me to fly over there since the grob will always be in use.
