Young German female pilot (19) was flying above Krkonou0161e Mountain range. During an emergency landing attempt hit the polish-built glider some trees near tourist pension. Glider got stuck on the tree but after about 30 minutes it fell down itself. On the score of that fall, have the only member of crew broken her arm and was taken to the hospital in Hradec Králové.
Conclusions
The accident was probably caused by using a wrong flying technique when landing on the ground, which lead to hitting the treetop ahead of the place chosen for landing. The pilot underestimated conditions of flying a glider in the mountainous terrain.
