N6758N Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 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.

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.

chrixxer Posted October 9, 2017 Author Report Posted October 9, 2017 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 2
