During take-off, the glider climbed to about 8 meters and crash to the ground for unknown reasons. The test-pilot died after unsuccesfull reanimation.
Note: The glider was a Kasper Bekas 1-A. Only three of this glider-type were built in the early 1970s. The owner bought the glider from the USA in 2010 and restored it in flyable condition. This was one of the first flights.
