Factual narrative
WHILE ON THE INITIAL TEST FLT, THE AMATUER-BUILT R. M. STONE MONI ACFT CRASHED NEAR BYRON, CA. THE PLT REPORTED THAT DURING THE FLIGHT THE ACFT BEGAN TO 'FLUTTER', FOLLOWED BY SEPARATION OF THE CANOPY. SHORTLY THEREAFTER THE ACFT ENTERED INTO AN UNCONTROLLABLE SPIN. THE PLT EXITED THE ACFTAND PARACHUTED SAFELY. THE ACFT WAS NOT RECOVERED. Source: NTSB Aviation Accident Database (Pre-2008 Archive) Retrieved: 2026-02-12
