Last time I saw something like this, they were in hangar two days later disassembling the engine, and within a week already had a preliminary finding. Also a no fatality event.

Don't know what to tell you, except the NTSB guy seemed overworked. He was still dealing with the immediate aftermath of a helicopter crash at Long Beach when we met last Saturday (that crash had happened earlier in the week), and a day or so after 4BE he was en route to somewhere in Arizona - Prescott, IIRC - for another accident. Sounded like he personally would be the one tearing into the aircraft, too.

NTSB inspected the aircraft 5 weeks after the July 2012 event.

I'm in Kerrville...

And a lot of GA folks are indirectly appreciating that Mooney fuselage today; if we hadn't been so protected, might not have gotten today's TRO blocking Santa Monica from shortening the SMO runway tomorrow... https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3wWtj5n3Y6QcThrNUF2N1lxTnM

I live between Kerrville and Fredericksburg. If you need anything while you're here, PM me.
