Mart blows up his glider


I received the following on my smart phone from an apparently
Australian phone number:


Mart Bosman broke his Airborne C4 on final glide at the Belgian
Nationals here in Laragne on Thursday. He deployed his parachute without a
problem. He didn't break any bones, but was in the hospital overnight.

It looks like the crossbar broke. He was overtaking a British pilot flying an
ATOS that was doing 115 km/h (71 mph) which is far beyond the design VNE (50
mph) when the glider folded up. The side wires were okay as was the pullback. I
haven't checked the VG yet.
