    Saw photos and a Blanik? crash at Sandhill Soaring Club last week. It looked pretty crumpled. Heard the front seat passenger was quite badly injured. Surprised there are no threads here discussing the accident and what mistakes were made resulting in
    this sad. Also heard lifeflight was initially called for but then the ambulance was used. Looking forward to hearing the details and getting to the bottom of this serious glider accident.

    Reports say two serious but survivable injuries. It was an L-23.
