Reported aircraft: WSK PZL Warzawa-Okecie PZL-104 Wilga 80 — a different aircraft that carried the N10RN registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: Aircraft control was not maintained by the tow plane pilot and the glider pilot did not maintain a proper climb rate during the initial climb. A direct crosswind and wind gusts were factors.
