NTSB accident and incident record under N800YG
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Dg Flugzeugbau GMBH DG 800B · serial 8-133B62
The motorglider pilot's decision to perform an in-flight engine start with insufficient altitude, which resulted in an off-airport landing and collision with trees after the engine did not start. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's distraction by the engine restart procedures during a critical portion of the landing approach.
