I caught a second hand version of what was on the TV news. Showed a KR2 flipped over and partially damaged. Understand that it was recently imported from the USA and had a recent history of engine issues as early as last weekend when it undertook it's maiden flight or at least maiden test-run.

Based on that, if I am referring to the correct aircraft, I do seriously wonder why it would have had 2 souls on board. I understand that the aircraft may have already been flying in another country, but it begs the question of whether or not it should have been under a test flight program whilst the bugs are ironed out.
