What happened in this accident to cause the N3 to "flip over" in the early stage of launch? Read this: https://assets.publishing.service.go...74a1317000923/ Schempp-Hirth_Nimbus-3_glider_G-EENN_06-13.pdf Its the full AAIB report on this accident and contains full and useful discussions about wing-drops during winch launches and of the importance of cockpit layout with regard to interference between flying controls and the hook release knob: both are relevant in this case. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
