The flight instructor and student pilot were conducting an instructional flight. The flight instructor reported that, during the landing, he told the student, 'I have the flight controlsâ€; however, the student did not relinquish them. As a result, the instructor was unable to control the glider, which resulted in a hard landing and the student pilot sustaining serious injuries.
Probable Cause: The student pilot's failure to relinquish the flight controls during landing when the flight instructor told him to do so, and the instructor's subsequent inability to properly control the glider, which led to a hard landing.
