MU2 had a relatively limited production run not like the 150/152 which
has been built for ever and in the thousands.
So? The 152 still has a finite supply. Keep crashing them, they will
eventually disappear from the fleet.

I posted as a jab at Mike (MU2) who stands up for the bird even with
these 'strange' type of accidents. Flying one, he may have some feed
back on this accident?
Why would you post a jab at Mike? Why shouldn't he stand up "for the bird"?
There are many types of aircraft that require specialized training and
careful handling. I've heard nothing about the MU2 that suggests it's
anything other than a high-performance airplane that requires close
attention. The same things could be said of the P-51, but I don't see you
posting jabs at the folks who fly them.
Not all airplanes are as docile as a Cessna. That doesn't make them bad
airplanes, nor does it justify crowing about accidents that occur in them.
Hate to see these accidents both for crew and A/C

I hate to see any kind of accident. But when a type crashes that is the
same as that flown by someone I know of, I don't go poking them in the face
about it.
