Default Midair Crash

just saw the news clip of a Hawker 800XP hitting the wing of a glider out in Carson City... jet was apparently at 16,000 doing 450 KIAS when it struck the wing of the glider that was climbing. Obviously no transponder hit on the glider.

all survived, but with wet pants in the front. the glider pilot had a parachute and the female pilot of the hawker went gear up.. pics are on Airliners.net forum.. NetJets bird
