Thx for the link Spinner. A really good one.

Just to list the evidences on the vid that we can evenualy hve a discussion on rational grds (at least !)

Trailing wheel pop out -> induced bank left -> Pilot action bank right + pitch up -> ctrl ard Roll axis not manageable -> left trim elev separated -> nose down (inverted)...

First video that I can actually see the trim tab come lose and fly off. Wonder why wheel came down. Speculation is many things. Blackout from tab falling off to seat coming lose.

The wheel came down because of the G-forces.
