There is also another case in the system against Mt. Beauty Gliding club (also reported in the Advertiser some months back). How is that case progressing?
I am not sure of the exact details, corrections accepted: Visiting pilot hires twin seater with passenger glider after having a site check (there is a high ridge line west of the airfield). Rotor-like conditions present? Glider spins/stalls into ridge line, lands in trees, fuselage hanging downwards. People onboard are OK, pilot tells passenger to remain strapped in until help arrives. Passenger freaks out, releases harness and gets out of aircraft causing spinal injury to self. Now, some ?10 years later, passenger is suing Mt. Beauty Gliding club for breaching duty of care by allowing operation to be carried out in conditions conducive to rotor. -- * You are subscribed to the aus-soaring mailing list. * To Unsubscribe: send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] * with "unsubscribe aus-soaring" in the body of the message * or with "help" in the body of the message for more information.
