Glider crash Feb 18 2014 Mount Mitchell, Marion, NC, USA
The video on this link may be disturbing to glider pilots. Cockpit area of glider in tree is shattered. You can read the article and not watch the video.
http://www.wlos.com/shared/news/feat...ll-15167.shtml Pilot injured. Excerpt from article: Gary Banks, Yancey County Sheriff, "...I was told he was still attached to the plane that was pulling him." Did the accident happen during aerotow? Was rotor a factor?
