And that's why the whole HT-18 passing a crapload of Class A mishap free flight hours a couple of years ago is so puzzling. A Charlie crashed when I was in HT's, following an instrument auto (sprag clutch slippage upon recovery), and the aircraft was destroyed. I thought it had been stricken, but if it was - then it would have impacted their Class A record... Maybe some creative accounting? Anyone know the low down on that one?
Was this in early 2001?
