An ultralight plane crashed just after takeoff at an altitude of about 10 meters. An occupant broke his thighbone, and the other who was the pilot suffered minor injury to cut his face. The pilot reported that he could not control the plane because the passenger, 72 years old male, got nervous of his first flight and held the control stick tight.
