Default Glider accident while filming commercial in 2011. NTSB Reportupdated

Thanks for the info Andreas.

Not that the reporting is that diligent in either case when far from home.
And BGA Numbers include any that occurred to a BGA member, anywhere, in
any registration.

Indeed.

As an example - the BGA statistics include any accident or incident
reported by a member anywhere in the world. So their numbers include
locations in Spain and South Africa.

The German numbers do not.

I express no opinion on which is a better approach. Merely that the one
is organisational statistics and the other is geographic.


HI Bruce,

German accident statistics include any accident/incident that happened
on a German airfield, in Germany, or in which a German registered
aircraft was involved, worldwide.


Cheers
Andreas
