It's a decent translation, not sure where the Bendigo came from though... ;)
Some words that weren't translated: segelflygtävling = sailplane competition smällde = loud crash Poor transaltions: finnish carts = the glider was Finnish landing on the measure = outlandings on fields encounter any stone = hit a rock After "Christensson does not know what caused the accident.": The accident investigation will find the cause. At these competitions there are GPS logs showing the plane speed and altitude. It's possible to reconstruct what happened. The Accident Commission has been informed about the accident, but according to Christensson it will probably be delegated to the Sailplane Association to perform the accident investigation. 500,000 SEK is about $87,000 AUD.
