[jetjok]

Saw this report on the FAA Preliminary Report for today. Looks like the damage was only to the aircraft

Correct me if I read this wrong, but does'nt the report indicate there was a fatality?

[Flyfalcons]

Crew:1
Fatal:0

[DCat22]

No.. "Injuries: 1 Uninjured" from http://www.ntsb.gov/NTSB/brief.asp?ev_id=20090113X55612

INJURY DATA Total Fatal: 0
# Crew: 1 Fat: 0

Formatting makes it a bit odd. (Along with the blank after "Unk: ")

EDIT: What Ryan said.

Not to flog the expired equine, but yesterday's incident had a crew of one (1), fatality's zero (0) if I am reading the report correctly. Unfortunately, if I interpreted the NTSB report linked below, that accident occured in November, 2008.

NTSB Identification: WPR09CA080
14 CFR Part 91: General Aviation
Accident occurred Monday, November 24, 2008 in Onalaska, WA
Probable Cause Approval Date: 4/15/2009
Aircraft: TARANTOLA RV6A, registration: N164LT
Injuries: 1 Uninjured.

...I think the NTSB report is a previous accident with the same plane at the same airport....

Especially since the one in post #1 was in the current Preliminary Accident Report section.

[John Clark]

It is just one event, the incident occurred on 11/24/08 and the NTSB published the probable cause, the final report, on 4/15/09. All the reports have the same reference number.

http://www.ntsb.gov/ntsb/GenPDF.asp?...09CA080&rpt=fi

The best line in the report:

"He said that he landed on runway 27 with a 20-knot tailwind and was unable to stop before the end of the 1,100-foot runway."

...the incident occurred on 11/24/08 and the NTSB published the probable cause, the final report, on 4/15/09...

...did it appear in a current Preliminary Report almost a year after the final report that determined a cause?

Is there something we don't know about these Preliminary Reports?

Note that the Preliminary report first quoted (post #1) does not have a NTSB number.

Still sounds to me like a second event to the same plane....

Two separate accidents with same airplane/same airport. Nov 28,2008 report shows damage to right wing. Yesterdays post of accident which took place Mar 5, 2010, the airplane flipped over.

Sorry for creating confusion.

Should have checked the dates/data matching better...
