Tak jsem se chtel podivat na Den 4 a zjistuji, ze je o jednoho pilota mene.
We are sorry to inform that Mauricio Perez Friedman (CHI) flying in WB, died after his glider hit the mountainside at the sector called Cordón de Los Españoles around 22km north of the field and at about an hour before the starting gate opening. The accident was informed inmediatly activating the rescue procedures in coordination with the Air Force and the local aviation authorities. The cause of the accident is not clear yet, but an investigation has started to determine the causes and to prevent such a thing from happening again.
Mauricio, 33, had a vast flight experience, participating last year with his father and brother in the first double crossing of the Andes from Vitacura to Mendoza in Argentina and back. He was an great sportsman, liked by all his pears.
We would like to express to his family and friends our deepest condolences. Mauricio will be missed by all of us.
