nice find Daniel, looks like someone didn't stay on the nose wires and then fell :-(....but the pilot in command could/should have had a lower aoa....
... it also shows a spectator/pilot? standing right where the glider ends up (close anyway)...(notice they don't even move :-((
...we should keep that one handy(somehow) for those that ask why they need to stay behind the cones on launch...d

I contacted the guy who put it on Youtube. He doesn't own the video. Anyone know where we can get the original so we can make (and keep) a better version on flyfunston.org?
