In the report it states the cause as flutter due to exceeding the Vne. However in the graphic of the sequence of events and location of aircraft parts the IAS of the RV was not close to Vne. The Vne was only exceeded in the later phase of the break up.
IAS at first break up location was 144kts . It was not above Vne in the preceding manouvres ?
