I've just realized that it's a bit more involved: There not only is the

same date.

Again, thanks. It didn't take too long - there was only one incident,
the collision between a Stemme S10 and an ASH26E on 21 April this
year, which was reported in the IHT:

I would have thought both those aircraft would have been carrying
FLARM units - would you or anyone else happen to know more about that?

This accident was between a Stemme and an ASH25 (not ASH26E). Only the
passenger of the ASH25 survived. Both aircraft were carrying FLARM. I
heard that the FLARM antenna of the Stemme was not securly insertet
which may have rendered the FLARM useless. The Stemme Pilot went down
with his plane. The ASH Pilot managed to jump but the parachute did
not open before impact. The Passenger bailed out succesfully and spent
the night in the cockpit of the ASH. As far as I know the ASH was also
carrying an ELT.
