On September 25, 2024, about 0706 eastern daylight time, an Evolution Aircraft Inc.

An examination of the wreckage at the accident site revealed that the aircraft came to rest in a field with a compact wreckage distribution. A postimpact fire consumed the majority of the wreckage. All flight control cables were connected to their respective connections except the haul back cable, which was disconnected at the “J” hook. The safety latch was intact. 

The wreckage was retained for further examination.
