This is the accident that happened at Wautoma, about 20 miles from me and
right on the way to OSH. The accounts that I have heard agree with what Jay
has posted.
I'm sure Mike had plenty of experience, I have no idea how many hours in
Glassiars but as a side note, the FSDO Inspector that I took my CFI ride
with gave me an extensive lecture about teaching or flying airplanes that
you have little or no experience in. One comment she made was that the most
common accident at OSH was high time pilots in airplanes that they had
relatively low time in and more precisely small fast slick airplanes that
they had relatively low time in.

Mike Crowell who operated Mission Aviation Training Academy, and also
ran the mountain flying forums at the Arlington EAA Fly-In was killed in
a GA air crash this week.
This is the guy doing the photo shoot in the new Glassair, no?
Very sad. No one knows for sure what happened, but witnesses report that
he
got too slow, stalled and spun in.
