Incidents and accidents
  • On 1 September 2007 a Schweizer SGS 2-33A glider, N65832, was damaged beyond repair due to its pilot's inattentiveness during preflight. This caused the altimeter to be incorrectly reset, causing the pilot to release tow 1,000 feet lower than where he thought he was. The glider struck the tops of trees upon final approach.[5]
