Can anyone refer me to the NTSB link for the in-flight breakup of RV-6-CH, N424D in 2012? I'm particularly interested in how much the plane varied from the original RV6 design. Thanks!

Any chance one of the Moderators would consider changing the title of the thread? Casual readers might assume the worst.
Inflight Breakup of Homebuilt RV "Lookalike", or something else?
So there is no confusion
The experimental aircraft that crashed Monday afternoon near Crabtree killing two men ?was not built from one of our RV-6 kits,? said Gus Funnell, who provides support for builders at the airplane?s kit manufacturing plant in Aurora.
?It possibly could have come from some plans we had a while ago, but this plane was a highly modified version of the RV-6,? he said Wednesday. ?When you compare the plane that crashed to our standard, there are a number of differences.?
