During landing on RWY 30 LKTA. During the landing maneuver, the pilot hit the lower part of the fuselage hard on RWY 30 at the Czech Championship in motorless flying 2020. The pilot suffered serious injuries. The glider was damaged to a large extent.

The cause of the accident was loss of control of the glider at higher speed, balanced heavy on its head at low altitude in front of the runway, while trying to extend the landing gear.
