I've change my mind about this. I've switched to ban it.

Simply because it's the 3rd time it's happened. I only knew of 2. I reckon that you only need 2 similar accidents to identify a problem. As you said why were they still using them?

For them to continue racing when they knew that the failiure of the trim tab
resulted in such a violent reaction, and had resulted in one of the aircraft breaking up mid air, was at the very least reckless.
