Due to a misjudgment of the thermal conditions, the 20-year-old pilot was no longer able to approach the airfield in Kißlegg and therefore attempted an outlanding. In doing so, she overestimated her speed, causing the glider to crash to the ground. The 20-year-old was able to exit the cockpit on her own and was later flown to a hospital by rescue helicopter. The glider was severely damaged in the crash landing, with the property damage estimated at 30,000 euros. Experts from the police and the German Federal Bureau of Aircraft Accident Investigation have begun investigating the cause of the crash at the scene.
