Well that’s what happens when you tear down the airflow under the hull…

 

They should have kept the sailors well away from the site.

Crash landing Crash in Altlichtenwarth at Mistelbach. The flight student had to 
be cut out of the glider.
In his club they reverently call him "the flight of vultures." The 60-year-old 
flight instructor Louis B. is a master of his craft. But on 24 April last year 
he could not avoid a crash landing.

The glider of the brand "Blanik" during a training flight crashed near the 
airfield Altlichtenwarth, northeast, in a field. The pilot was even injured. 
However difficult it caught his 47-year-old flight student. She suffered a 
comminuted fracture of the 12th Thoracic vertebra, Rissquetschwunden and a 
concussion.

Louis B. Thursday for negligent injury in Laa an der Thaya in court. And was 
initially unaware of any guilt. He had then unlatched the rope and left to the 
student the tax. She was so soon overwhelmed: "I can not take over Beac" The 
air flow under the hull was torn down and suddenly had the sailors sink. When 
Louis B. grabbed the stick, it was obviously too late.

Damages

The 47-year-old had to be cut out of the plane and flown by emergency 
helicopter to the hospital. She was a long time in the ICU. Your lawyer 
Nicholas fighting for them to stop pain and suffering damages. He calls 63,000 
euros.

During the flight made it clear criminal experts, that Louis was as a flight 
instructor as the pilot, even if the student in the driver's hand and it had 
taken the fateful "plummeting". Much like the driving instructor at a training 
session in the driving school car.

The trial ended with a diversion: no formal condemnation, no criminal record, 
but an admission of guilt, and 2000 € fine and a symbolic amount of 500 € for 
the injured. In a civil case, the actual level of compensation is determined, 
the insured must pay the student's flight instructor.
