Any info? http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/spl...nl_1273838771/ img/1.jpg "An investigation has been started after a glider crashed on a main road in Oxfordshire, narrowly missing a house. The pilot was attempting to land at Bicester Gliding Club near Caversfield when the aircraft came down across the A4421 at 1730 BST on Thursday. The single seat glider was badly damaged but the pilot escaped uninjured. The British Gliding Association said a full investigation would be carried out to determine the cause.

A4421 separates the housing estate from the airfield on the west side, so probably trying to stretch the glide, got low and slow, and came down about 200 yards short.
