V95.1: Ultralight, microlight or powered-glider accident injuring occupant
Ultralight, microlight, or powered-glider accident injuring occupant refers to a specific circumstance wherein the individual has sustained injuries due to an accident involving an ultralight aircraft, microlight aircraft, or a powered glider. Ultralights, microlights, and powered gliders are small, lightweight aircraft typically used for leisure aviation activities. An accident involving these aircraft can result in a wide range of injuries, depending on the severity of the accident. Common injuries include bone fractures, superficial cuts and bruises, back and neck injuries, head injuries, or more serious damage such as internal bleeding or organ damage. These injuries can vary in severity, from mild to severe, depending on factors such as the speed of the aircraft at the time of the accident, the height from which a fall occurred, or the nature of any impact with objects or the ground.
