It is with a heavy heart I report an RV-12 crashed yesterday - the pilot was fatally injured. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of those affected.

If I hear some information from those related to the deceased, I will post it (if that is their wish). When the FINAL report is published by the NTSB, it will be added to the Probable Cause list at: http://www.vansairforce.net/AccidentsAndSynopsis.htm. We encourage discussion on those probable cause documents. Please discuss these all you want and hopefully learn something that will make you a safer pilot!

Speculation very rarely helps, and it almost ALWAYS hurts family and close friends. Per the posting rules those types of threads are deleted. If you would like to re-read the rules regarding speculating on crashes in threads here, that can be found at: http://www.vansairforce.net/rules.htm. It?s rule #2.

My deepest sympathies to all affected, and if there is anything Susie or I can help you with?just ask.
