Tommy,
As I remember, the accident in California resulting from aerobatics
resulted in the tail assy being several hundred yards from the
fuselage..... Sounds like the elevator assy came off....
I think there is a Service Bulletin addresses the replacement of
bolts/Checking bolts, etc.... If that happened, then the coupe would
immediately flip into a 90 degree to direction mode, putting very high loads on
the wings and center section......causing the buckling......; and not a center
section rivet corrosion problem.
