Good lord.

That is a frightening example of a nose landing…
It’s indeed unbelievable how the pilot survived to so many G’s

Hope he recovers

Researching online data and reports. Pilot has a head injury. airport is 8 mi east of tulsa. appears to have departed rwy 17 2580 ft length. crashed into church parking lot , approx 1/4 mi due south of dept end of runway. witnesses say plane struggled to get into the air. possible stall/spin.
trying to ascertain a n number. does anyone recognize or know this plane?
best to the pilot.

That's a Moni. I don't see any reference to a Waiex.

Indeed tough to watch.

Hi all, kip,
the origional post on kathrynsreport yesterday , had no n number, but the narrative used waiex.

built in 1986 and was registered to jim ownb(e)y. meridan. idaho. this registration on the faa registery shows it de registered. 9/17/2013.
if someone could post a direct link to today sept 7 kathrynsreport would be appreciated.

Hi,
How's this for frightening. Our club plane with instructor Achilles tendon damage, student broken wrist. walked away. No cockpit left.

Agreed - that's what the registry says. But I suppose that it may have JUST sold and the bill of sale and new registration paperwork was mailed to the FAA. Then it's legal to fly.

Checking the FAA website - they say the registration branch is dealing with paperwork 23 June 2021 and EARLIER. So it might just be a case of paperwork catching up.

Any yes - it's a MONI not a Waiex (they have a similar V tail)

--

That said - if that is the case, and the plane had not flow in in 8 (?) years and it was a new plane to the owner - I can see that could be a whole can of worms right there.

hi all,
yes graeme, thats a possibility, i mentioned yesterday in a post, new owner in tulsa. and yes due to covid and staffing at the sprawling faa campus at the mike m. aero center in OKC , the new registration could be delayed.
the campus adjoins the okc will rodgers airport. all faa job specific training conducted there. along with cami the aeromedical branch, a/c cert and registration, terps ( airspace design , approach/ dept plates, software for atc facilities radar and twr .) classes for atc, tech ops, fsdo.

in the narrative on KR the first day sept 6 , they mentioned moni and waiex, but was clearly a moni, infact moni
is on the side of fuselage. KR corrected their post on sept 7 and included a n number.

The commenter on the end of article claims to be concerned about the pilots qualifications, currency, aircraft weight and balance. not sure what engine is installed.

The facts will all come out in the wash. Again , i sure hope people learn from others mistakes. and as always
its usually not just one thing, but a series of events , in the right order, to cause a catastrophe.

wishing the pilot a speedy recovery.
and yes graeme my fingers crossed the registration is in the mail.
