Any details on the Uvalde mid-air / bailout?

We don't have many contest mid-airs. The last one I heard of was also at Uvalde, also in a thermal, but that resulted in much less damage and both pilots got home ok. We do have lots of contest mid-airs. I've been at several contests where there was a mid-air, including a fatal in Bayreuth at the pre- worlds. I lost a friend to a mid-air in Oz. John Good bailed out after a mid- air in Chester. Several midairs at contests I attended resulted in only minor damage. Be careful out there, Best Regards, Dave "YO"
