As unpleasant as some may find the subject of aircraft accidents, there is still much to be learned by individual analysis of the circumstances, What do I think went wrong?, What would I have done / not done?, What can I learn from this? Should I ever find myself on the "wrong end of the stick", I would like to have it analyzed with this in mind.

Here are some fairly recent WWI replica accidents that are applicable to our little sector. Bad few years for the SE5?, or can the decision chain of events be clearly identified in the last two listed?

Recent SE5, fatal, cause not yet determined.

WPR10LA010

2007 SE5, nonfatal, engine failure on takeoff, (much discussed on this thread, this one a maintenance issue?)

2008 SE5, nonfatal, builder / manufacturer error.
