Really sad to hear that news.
We had similar accident two years ago, luckily the victim survived and he is still on a long process of recovery.

Recently, there is a similar incident in China for which a 4 year old kid was killed by a powerful r/c helicopter. See the news here

This is a long video; you can start at time 43:05 to jump to the part that mentioned about the incident. Interesting, the news also mentioned the incident happened two years ago in Hong Kong.

We should be more cautious when we fly our gliders, although we normally fly in remote area, but our gliders are really fast, if we hit someone on ground or paraglider pilot in air, the end result is devastating! Just take care and be more considered my fellow pilots! 8) :twisted:

飛行安全性非常重要
本周日的 HKRCSS 會議其中一個重點話題
是如何安全地與滑翔傘,安全地共用飛行空間

請出席題供意見、一同商討解决辧法!
