On behalf of the Hang Gliding Association, I would like to thank Milan, Karolína and Jarda for today's help and excellent response in rescuing a crashed paraglider on the Ještěd ridge.
Jarda Třeštík noticed the crashed pilot during the flight and contacted the ground crew (K and M). While Jarda circled until he was high enough to mark the accident site, Milan and Kája arrived through difficult terrain to the seriously injured pilot and organized help in cooperation with the LZS. (The response time of the LZS was in the respectable order of minutes!)
I hope and believe that there are many such quick-witted partners in our community, capable of effective response to critical events. Everyone would probably do that, you might say, but I still think they should be thanked for the course of today's event. Thanks also go to the LZS and rescue services.
We hope and wish the injured pilot a speedy recovery.
Have a good flight. Peter Polách
