The handlebars of a ULM died after an accident in Biebertal

BIEBERTAL – (rsc). The 58-year-old driver of a microlight was fatally injured in an accident in the district of Biebertaler Königsberg Saturday at 3 pm and a few hours later succumbed to his severe head injuries. The cause of the accident is not clear at the moment. "The plane had just started, flew a left loop and suddenly descended from a height of twenty meters," said a witness from Königsberg, who was just close by. The Schmallenberg man (Hochsauerlandkreis) was caught in the fall and released by the fire department with an electric saber saw. With a rescue helicopter, the man was transported to the shock room of the University Hospital Giessen, where he died in the evening. The rugged aerial sport equipment is a hang glider with a minimum rear engine, in which the pilot is in a kind of bag, which is suspended under the liner of the wing in the link. The volunteer fire brigades of Biebertal and Lollar were on site with four vehicles and 25 rescue teams.
