Soon after take-off, while the ultra-light was flying at an altitude of approximately 500 feet, several witnesses heard some noise and saw the wings folding-up. All fractures indicated a rupture due to instantaneous overstress. The pilot used his ultra-light regularly. At the time of the accident, winds were calm, with no clouds in the sky.
