Two weeks ago I flew with a friend in a delta wing trike. Yesterday afternoon he went down. I'm very saddened now. He just got his sport pilot license. He's been flying delta wing for years.

Details are sketchy. He is in fair condition now. broken jaw and punctured lung/broken ribs. Passenger too with an added broken leg. It seems he clipped a tree top on take off. Not sure on this.

Anything can happen at anytime. Be careful out there.
