Dear Thread Friends, I want to refresh your memory a bit. You all do recall the 601XL (N105RH) that crashed in Oakedale California last 8 February? Two fellows, in pattern, wings folded back, crash-both fatal? I checked NTSB and could not find any finding as to cause. It's been 8 months. Shouldn't there be some findings about what caused the crash by now? Maybe I missed it somewhere. Does anyone know of a cause report somewhere? Best regards, Bill of Georgia

Yes there has been some speculation as to that crash and the fact that bolts were purchased just before the flight from Home depot ( not confirmed). What is confirmed is that the owner neglected to install nuts on the rear spar bolts(confirmed) The bolts were thought to have departed the spar well into the flight and the adding of flaps was what folded the wing . It is as we suspected and talked about. Is there a lesson to be learned from this, No you already should have learned to pre-flight your plane and if you remove any structure you double check everything then have someone else check it. I feel bad for the pilot and families sometimes it is hard to calm the eagerness before a flight.

One thing my grandfather showed us when they had a flight line of planes, was he would always ground the plane, whether with a notice on a board or even putting a lock on the prop, with a note listing the items that needed to be checked prior to putting the plane flight ready. This crash shows that as a pilot, we need the displine to ground ourselves until the craft we are charged with is flyable. It looks at first blush like parts were removed, and then at flight time they were forgetfull that the parts were missing. I have already acted upon lessons learned with this acccident that truly sounded preventable.

Mark, where did you collect this information about the bolts? Has this been officially posted as causation? Because we all pretty much concluded something similar back in February, Best regards, Bill of Georgia

Inside info, the official announcement will follow at some time but the manufacturer is notified first.

The manufacturer is the builder of the plane,,,, not Zenith.. You must know the original builder.
