Sad to see, the guy just wanted to go out for a fun fly then this.A 10.00 am flight probably just really caught hin of guard with the turbualance at that time of day with that small

 

elliptical canopy I prefer the comfort of the first light or last hour of the day flight,its hairy enough with a 370 sq ft rectangular rigid canopy at 9.00am.Condolences to family and friends.

Speed wing and cool smooth stable day with almost no wind. Cause unknown at moment.
