Minooka Accident?
That's very interesting... where can one find this 'History'?

Mine was equipped by the previous owner with a custom made wood inserts, supposedly preventing of such events. Collapsing of the back rest would certainly cause pilot to fall back and sudden back pull on the stick. Following stall would be consistent with this scenario. If my back support was being reinforced with wooden blocks I would assume something was broken and it would not be flown until fixed! Regards, Bob 7U
