On 16.03.2007, the pilot took off on an afternoon gliding trip with a BLANIK L-13 A glider. He untied the tow rope at an altitude of 600 m QFE (QFE altitude above the airport) and began gliding. At an altitude of between 1600 m and 1700 m, the aircraft was located above the slope between Mali Golak (1480 m) and Moščančarski hrib (1356 m) near the town of Predmeja. Above the slope of Moščančarski hrib, the glider began to lose altitude in a downward slope and crashed into the treetops, where it became trapped. The aircraft was severely damaged in the collision. The pilot was not injured in the collision.
The cause of the accident is: human factor – too low a height to fly over the slope where the plane crashed.
