Not to be contentious, but more fodder for the safety monkeys...................looks like this guy did a fantastic job getting the sailplane down safe and with all in 1 piece. I am interested in learning how the "loss of air" caused this to happen. I will not be criticizing the pilot, as we are all prone to being in the news someday, despite the never ending articles in Soaring about safety. Brad Oh bullcrap. With 1/3 the skill and the judgement we expect of a solo ready student this was a routine local flight. -Evan Ludeman / T8
