While carrying out a free flight with three passengers organised during the GEMAB, the pilot decided to abort the flight because they were approaching a restricted area and the wind was starting to gust.
Before landing, he reminded the passengers of the landing safety recommendations and warned them that, due to the wind conditions, they would have to hold on tight.
Driven by the wind, close to the limit recommended by the manufacturer, the basket turned onto its side and was dragged for about 10 m. One passenger was injured during this manoeuvre. The precise circumstances that led to the passenger’s injury could not be established.
