Default Cirrus collides with Glider/Towplane

news media is taking the opportunity to again report inaccurate or half
the information.


"In order to generate speed and lift, the pilot must be skillful enough
to fly the glider at angles up and down and side to side so the glider
gains enough speed to remain aloft."

Unfortunately the accident is too sad to be able to laugh at this piece
of journalism.
