Andy, The 4/1/2004 midair at Oso, WA. The Libelle pilot was not
killed. He walked out after a parachute deployment.
Thanks - I'm sure he'll be glad to hear that.
I'll go back and check why that came out that way.

Apologies, I should have checked first before making a joke. I see now this was the Libelle/DG-400 midair.
The database correctly shows the fatality in the DG, not the Libelle. The way the NTSB tracks these accidents there were two gliders involved in a fatal accident with a single fatality. There are some others, such as the towplane that collided with a Cirrus in Colorado. That one show three aircraft and four fatalities with a glider involved.
