The short initial preliminary FAA report says:https://www.asias.faa.gov/apex/f?p=100:95:::NO::P95_EVENT_LCL_DATE,P95_LOC_CITY_NAME,P95_REGIST_NBR:19-NOV-18,CORONA,N322JS
"LANDED ON CESSNA 172G N4240L WHILE IT WAS PREPARING FOR TAKEOFF"

I'm sure there's a lot more to the story.
No serious injuries (great news), substantial aircraft damage (not surprising, given the short description).
It sounds scary. Best wishes to all concerned.

Wow. I'm glad no one was hurt!

This accident got my attention in that I logged some takeoffs and landings in N322JS, thanks to the builder and owner at that time, prior to flying my own Sonex 13 years ago. I've also flown into Corona airport many times in the past and it could be an absolute "zoo" at times. One of the busiest airports you'll find without a control tower, much more so than some other airports with operating control towers. I've also seen 2JS advertised for sale this past year at what seemed like a bargain price.......don't know if it had sold or not.

Glad, too, that apparently no one was injured. Like most accidents, there must be multiple factors that are attributal to this one happening.
