If you are really interested in buying a R66, why don't you contact him and stop speculating.
I am not interested in buying an R66 - I am an Instructor who flies one for charter and instructing. I'd much prefer to know what happened so that I can truthfully answer the potential buyers I fly with, who have far more money than I do and ask me this exact question. I do not know the owner of this R66, so won't be contacting them anytime soon.
I do know what happened but it was relayed to me in confidence - apologies I will not tell.
My 2 year old nephew can do "I've got a secret but I'm not going to tell you, nah nah nah". If you won't tell us what happened, why bother telling us that you know ? Don't play silly games.
No-one said it was recent. H68 made a minor incorrect assumption. You can't be shot for that.
