Two gliders collide in Leszno, Poland
Two gliders collided in Leszno, Poland, yesterday during Standard Class
Nationals. Both pilots (she and he) bailed out and landed safely except for a minor injury on his leg. The accident is reported to have happened in a gaggle 30 minutes after the gate was opened, close to the cloud base. Yet another contribution to the topic: Parachutes - yes or no... Tomasz
