Since the rope obviously didn't wrap around the second plane's prop, Ernst acted prematurely in activating the parachute; he still could have cut the engine and glided to a safe landing with less chance of collateral damage on the ground. And yes, I am a pilot.

@cka411 The glider had been disconnected; the tow-rope behind the tow plane snagged Hans' plane.

wow what an asshole pilot flying right into that guys path, there are too many fucktards with pilots licenses.

it's a good thing the towing plane didn't get tangled in the mess.

He's flying a high wing airplane, they have great visibility of anything coming up from below you. It doesn't change the fact that he was the one that caused it, gliders are less maneuverable and always have the right of way.

When a damaged aircraft is moving fast, a pilot can control it better, however, at low speeds, handling is much more difficult. It is one thing to have a damaged plane under control. It is another to land it.

Cant understand why the guy in Cirrus that had a part of the wing come off still pulled the chute when he already had it under control! If it's under control, then land.

Well other came up from below, he cant see the ground at that angle, for obvius reasons such as a floor ofc.But the other guy can always watch up.
