While I do think there are legitimate questions  regarding aileron flutter (and a variety of possible cause including  operator/maintainer actions), some of the NTSB stuff is a bit odd.

  

 Witnesses on the ground seeing vibration on an  airplane entering the pattern.  An eagle maybe, not a  person.

  

 Pitch sensitivity.  Well, yes.  If you  don't notice that and fly accordingly, you shouldn't be flying.

  

 The discussion over IAS versus CAS.  This  isn't exactly the X-15.  Is this relevant?

  

 It is unfortunate that Zenith remains somewhat  evasive -- but I think I see lawyers in the background.  Let's hope this  gets resolved quickly.

  

 Has anyone had problems with firewall and stiffener  damage from semi-hard landings?
