Paragliding incident Sweden Härekeberga 2013- 10-12
- We do not use the weak link.
- Swedish Accident Investigation Authoritys report: www.havkom.se/en/investigation...
"An aircraft of the model SAAB MFI 15 took off from Sundbro, Uppsala, for a
VFR flight to Johannisberg, Västerås. Shortly thereafter began winching of a
paraglider from Härkeberga, located along the aircraft's route.
At the final stage of the winching, at about 350 meters altitude, the paraglider
pilot saw an airplane coming straight at him at a slightly lower altitude. The
aircraft passed below the paraglider a few seconds later without colliding. The
height difference was estimated by the paraglider pilot to about 50 feet and the
distance to the line was 1 to 3 meters.
The pilot of the aircraft never perceived the event. The map data that the pilot
used - and which is the most widely used in general aviation - had no special
marking of the paragliding activities at Härkeberga. Neither the paraglider nor
the aircraft flew at altitudes implying contact with controlled airspace..."

____________________________________________________________________________
Why I look up and down all the time.
In order to keep the paraglider 90 degrees to the tow machine, you have to watch all the time against the paraglider and then against the towing machine. Especially when you are a beginner, as I was then, and if there is a sidewind. If you do not, there is a risk of getting lockout and dying. In my other videos, I usually cut off the head movements but in this video it was important not to cut out a few details in order to see the entire process.

    In the UK powered winch for gliders and paragliders are registered and NOTAM'd (notice to airman). In the UK it is law to check NOTAMs before you fly (and it's drilled into you throughout training) Therefore in the UK this would be entirely the fixed wing pilot's fault and probably result in a meeting with the CAA. Also, if the plane had hit the winch rope it would more than likely have destroyed the wing and killed everyone in the aircraft.

    On the other hand if you had an ignition system failure and there was a nice big flat field what would you do? My friend had that on takeoff from Bankstown heading to Sydney. Choice, land in houses and factories or just put it down on the grass crossing 3 active runways with 8 aircraft in the circuit with two on finals. He did and he lives.

    Paragliding schools must also activate their training area in advance. I experienced something similar as an instructor. The pilot of the powder plane was only curious, and although he was not dangerous, a complaint was filed. The kite effect at high altitude from the wrong angle to the wind and the towing vehicle (you have to intuitively derive that angle) does not have to be fatal, because you can disconnect in an emergency and use a backup round parachute, depending on the situation. The kite effect is dangerous at low altitudes, when after the "edge" of the parachute you immediately fall to the ground ... it's an old video, so at the moment you probably have experience.

    I find it interesting that the accident report states no serious consequences would have resulted if the plane had struck the line. I used to tow behind cars on a hang glider, and the line we used was several thousand-pound test line with a weak link. I can only imagine that the paraglider line is similar, but as stated, no weak link. If the plane had struck the line, the line's not going to just snap -- so how does that lead to no serious consequences? The paraglider's going to get yanked REAL hard until it locks out, then something else is going to have to give -- the ATV? The plane's wing? By the time you get to several thousand pounds on the line, the paraglider will certainly have failed in some way. All around, a very bad day.

    @Kinthesky7 жыл бұрын

    I saw something similar to this once from the ground. Our pilot was under tow at about 800 ft towards his 1200 ft goal before cut-a-way. Private plane came from his 6 o'clock flying illegally in the area at 1000 ft AGL level. Neither pilot could see the other. It was the scariest moment I'd ever witnessed from the ground. I still don't know how close they were? Very very close! It was so common and occurrence that it was never reported! We regularly flew outside and higher than we had permission to. Scary shit!

The line is the weakest link in this set up. The the stronger is the more damage it does. I think in hypothetical case of infinitely strong line the plane would crash.

    That's way more than 50' away. I'm sure it seemed closer but the wingspan of that airplane is probably around 30' (C-150 is 33', C-172 is 36', PA-28-140 is 30'). At 50' away you'd be able to make eye contact with the pilot, see what color shirt he's wearing, etc.

    Amazing they were able to figure out who the airplane was and investigate exactly what happend. I bet the pilot was really surprised he had no idea how close he came to possible crash. My guess is if he had hit the to line the paragliding would have just released and floated down the plane most likely would have been damaged, at best wound the cable around the prop. At worst rapped around one wing and been like a control line model airplane smashing it into the ground. The line could have also broken but my guess is those lines are very strong.

    G PMO Thank you The overall conclusion from the study is that no serious consequences would have occurred in a collision between the aircraft and the paragliderline. The incident was caused by the pilots flight maps lacking data on paragliding activities at Härkeberga which meant that the flight could not be planned and carried out safely. Contributing factor has been reduced visibility due to backlight conditions. Recommendations: None *In other words this could happen again!! and if the aircraft had been just slightly higher?! who knows what might happen.

    You must have your head on a flip top because you need to check that your wing is perpendicular to your direction of the tow line otherwise it gets dangerous fast. I was being towed up and when I pulled the handle to release it didn’t work on the first pull. I think on the second pull o breaker on the side it was out of line on, making it extremely out of line in 1 second. I was turned 90 degrees and could have started diving at the ground like a stunt kite. But at that moment the tow operator disengaged the pulling and I could straighten up. Then I detached and flew down.
