Runway excursion involving a Eiriavion Oy PIK 20-B, VH-WQC, Jondaryan, QLD on 27 September 1995

The right side of the strip was temporarily unavailable for takeoff due to a glider with an unserviceability returning for a landing. A tug aircraft was parked off the left side of the strip. Following a discussion with the pilot of the parked tug a decision was made to take off on the left side of the strip. During the ground run the left wing dropped to the ground, the glider veered to the left and the wingtip struck the left maingear tyre of the parked tug. The glider was substantially damaged.
