Cowabunga! An accident report done by someone knowledgeable of aviation
uninfected with the "headline virus." Watching this was a (pleasant)
first in my experience with "these sorts of events." Kudos to the
reporter and rescue-assisting pilot. "Well done!" all around.

Oh yeah. Sounds as if two glider pilots were Seriously Fortunate given
(as i infer) "the usual self-inflicted" circumstances. Can't help but
wonder who bore the salvage expenses...

Duo Discus Turbo. Wonder if this as another case of over-reliance on
the motor?
