If you witnessed the paragliding incident that required a helicopter rescue on May 19th, 2024, please contact us via e-mail to describe what you saw.

I have already tried to contact the pilot, but the pilot claims to have no recollection of the accident, or what led up to it. Any witnesses contacting us in private would be deeply appreciated. If you remember what the conditions were like and what time of day the accident occurred, any info will help make the report more complete. Thank you!
