NTSB accident and incident record under N62073
Aircraft on the NTSB record: North Wing Pulse · serial 53201
The hang glider's encounter with a developing vortex or dust devil while maneuvering during an airshow routine, which resulted in a loss of control at an altitude that precluded recovery. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's preexisting and worsening arthritis in his left shoulder, which inhibited his range of motion and resulted in a reduced ability to control and recover the hang glider during the encounter.
