An amazing photo of the bailout just emerged:

That's a different bailout.

Did either of those gliders have FLARM?

Apparently neither of the gliders near Portmoak did (see earlier msg from
John Galloway). I haven't heard anything about the Cambridgeshire
collision apart from that it happened and that in both cases there was an
inverted bailout.
