The pilot of the glider was waiting for a trailer to arrive to remove the aircraft and in the meantime, surf lifesavers helped to tow the aircraft from the beach.

A Civil Aviation Safety Authority spokesman said the "powered glider" suffered no significant damage during the forced landing and CASA was waiting for a report from the scene to determine whether further investigation was necessary.
