Sad Day
My condolences to their families. I was on the grid directly in front of that glider on Friday.
I'm assuming they got low and couldn't make it to a landable area. I wonder if they pushed the limits because they were counting on a sustainer? Was the engine extended? What is the L/D on the Arcus with the engine extended but not running? Rick
