Default Foka 4 fatal crash

The UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch (http://www.aaib.gov.uk) have
published their report on the fatal crash last year of a SZD Foka 4. The
report is included in the May 2011 bulletin.

The report confirms that the cause was a mis-rig, specifically the
incomplete engagement of the expanding rigging bolt.
