No one was ever blamed, but we did have a new A&P on the field. In my opinion, he was responsible. I never understood why that clamp was loose. I was the one who found the problem, I went and opened the cowl to see what was wrong. I was working at the time as ground manager for a 3 aircraft banner towing operation. This was in 1999. 9/11/01 put us and several other operators out of business. Shortly thereafter, I was grounded with health issues and haven't flown since. That situation has stuck in my mind. I have looked closely at a number of Experimental aircraft since and without exception, they have been better engineered then a certified commercial aircraft. Wayne DeLisle Sr.
