Does anyone on this Site know the facts about these separations??
I know of one. It was caused by loose or missing hardware, I recall
on the passenger's side forward corner. I can't recall for sure, but
the canopy may have been closed at the time of the incident. It
caused some minor damage to the other attach points on the fuselage
when it separated. It did not hit any part of the airframe when it
departed. The most extensive damage was to the owner's wallet. No
one on the ground was injured, AFAIK, and the canopy was not recovered.
(I'm not trying to make light of it, only to state the facts as I
understand them)
