Please
tell us what you think caused an accident and what could have prevented it.
That's the only way to get the word out and possibly prevent a similar
accident.

I don't know if the glider in question had a flight recorder, but many do, and
many mysterious accidents could have been fully analyzed if flight recorder
manufactures would have build them in a way that the memory can survive a
crash.
Unfortunately in most cases the flight log is lost simply as a result of the
memory battery comming loose. I heard of quiet a few such cases.
A recent mysterious accident during a contest could have been potentially
resolved if the flight log was available.

Any comments from flight recorder manufactures?
