GG - I was not having a go at you, just curious as to the basis of your broad statement.
I had forgotten about MBZ, but there were a range of other factors associated with that accident, ie weather.
I have a recollection of a survey C210 suffering a suspected inflight breakup, and there was a C201 on descent into Cloncurry some 30+ years ago.
Given the hundreds of thousands of hours flown by 210's in Oz over the last 40 years or so, three inflight breakups doesn't seem to warrant the label that you put on the aircraft.
And yes, I have a bunch of 210 hrs and fly a dreaded V-tail Bonanza!
