Just a reminder - this is the Citation 510 - that on delivery to Croatia as 9A-CSG - left Wichita with USA Cessna registration. The 9A - reg was painted under the wing.

Cessna covered it with white wrap - pilots missed the fact the fuel vent was covered - in flight pilots heard two big bangs - and one of the wings imploded - made an emergency landing.

Aircraft was dismantled and flown back by cargo - for weeks worth of repairs, and redelivered to Croatia.

Eventually it was sold and became OE-FWD.
