A glider crash-landed on the roof of a Langley City convenience store Sunday morning. No serious injuries were reported. Langley City fire rescue said the crash occurred around 10 a.m. when the glider slammed into some trees and ended up on the roof of the store at 208 Street and 56 Avenue. The store was open at the time. The pilot, who suffered what were described as minor injuries, had to be extricated by rescue workers and was transported to hospital. It took about an hour to get him out of the aircraft. The glider nose wheel knocked a hole in the roof of the second storey of the store, the residence of the store owners. City of Langley inspectors were to conduct an assessment of the structural damage. No occupant of the store was injured. The pilot was an air cadet, and was on his way to a landing at the Langley Airport. A spokesman for the Air Cadets said he was an experienced pilot. The incident is being investigated by Transport Canada.
