An unknown pilot on a mini wing with a reported sub 20 flights had some sort of accident somewhere close to the top of the hill. Wind reports and an an analysis of the crash location indicate that he may have been in a lee side area on a very windy day.
Most pilot had declared that evening un flyable due to strong gusts etc. The pilot was self taught but he did have contacts within the community that encouraged him to seek formal instruction.
The pilot suffered femoral fractures and suffered some level of head injury which were the cause of his fatality a number of days later.
There were no known witnesses to the event. We naturally wish the friends and family of the pilot the very best and would like to offer our support even though he is not known within the community.
