Well, looking at the pictures, it's amazing no one was badly injured.

I guess this Hawker will need a serious paint job !

10 years ago we had a collision in France betwen an A320 and a Glider. No one was hurt. A bit of the glider elevator went missing, and the Airbus had some paint chip here and there along the wing.
It was nobody's fault (!) but they never see each other until the last second.
Hopefully the story end well.
The name of the Glider pilot rings a bell , I wonder if he was not flying in France a couple of years ago (He had no Banzai tendency, as far as I remember )
