I appreciate all accidents are tragic affairs, always a story in the background, leaving generally bereft and bewildered friends and relatives. But when you go up to bash the circuit, and the wing departs, then you have to ask, WTF? This was a relatively new airframe, 8000 hours apparently TT, but looks like a fatigue/stress crack. Cause unknown. Very worrying, and every pilots worst nightmare. Poor guys...
