I wonder if this is the accident in question:

I believe that is the one I heard about. The folks who told me about
this (not surprisingly) own the US distribution rights for several
other competing LSAs.
The story goes (supposedly) that upon investigation (again, this is in
Europe) it was found that the CT was never properly certified to the
structural required limits, and their entire certification is now in
question.
Having flown a CT last summer, I can vouch for the fact that it is an
awesome little plane, and it would truly be a shame if this hurt
them. It's always hard to sift the wheat from the chaff in these
stories, though. If anyone knows the straight dope, please post it.
