Narrative:The PZL SZD 51-1 glider was on a local VFR flight from the Rockton Airport (CPT3). The glider made contact with the ground, nose first (on the runway).
Findings as to Causes and Contributing Factors:
The pilot may not have been familiar with the flight characteristics of the glider because this was the first flight on type. The glider was flown high and fast on approach.
The resultant long-landing situation may have caused the pilot to utilize air brakes and forward stick input to land the glider on the remaining runway. The final pitch-down into the runway may have been a result of these two actions.
