To put it simply, it sounds similar to the incident at Benalla. I had
someone to my left and behind at about the same altitude. Even though the
red light would have been on I don't remember seeing it. I guess I had my
eye's outside of the cockpit. Anyway I looked left to do a 180. With no
traffic sighted I started a sharp turn. Straight away the alarm sounded so
I immediatly straightened up and saw the red light. I did a turn to the
right and then left to find the other glider only to see it behind and
close.
Was it a close call maybe..........maybe not, but I'm glad Flarm stopped the
situation before I got to find out.

The serious situation, not the glider. How did it occur and and what led up
to it?
