engine failure.????
I was there about 1 hour after the incident.
Managed to take one or two pictures, but not able to unload to PPrune, sorry.
The other story I heard, was that the microlight, was making a very tight turn from a very close and low base leg.
There was a slight breeze, and no noticable turbulance.
The aircraft stalled in from about 50 feet, and impacted with very little visible damage, the Instructor and passenger were taken to the local hospital.
The nose wheel, was seperate from the main wreckage, but apart from that all in the same location, and consistant with a vertical drop from a low level, with negligable horizontal motion. I was not able to investigate any closer.
In keeping with the GCAA policy, they are investigating, and expect a full unbiased report soonest.
The airfield remained closed until GCAA satisfied that the incident was pilot error
