EoN Olympia 460 BGA.1178 at Northallerton.

At 15.30hrs on 15th June 1980 the pilot of this glider attempted a landing diagonally across on a rugby pitch at Northallerton. He attempted to avoid power lines next to the field and while he got the glider down into the field it then ran into a fence at the corner of the field. The glider was registered to Doncaster Gliding Club in 1981 and may have been with this owner when this incident occurred at Northallerton.

Pilot - Name unknown.
