Default 2005 Worlds Juniors Accident.

Accidents don't happen by accident, and it is always sad to read about
the chain of events, which quite often, could have easily been
avoided.

WOW! The competitors kept flying so low, even after the mishap, that
the rescue staff had to duck. Increase the risks, and you will end up
on a report too...

The picture on the contest cover is familiar. Was the photographer
Hughes Beslier? http://beslier.free.fr/

If so, it is truly sad....

The photo of the contest cover (figure 7) was taken by Neil Lawson
himself, the photographer killed in the accident (see page 68). His
incredible website and photos can be be found he http://
