I just lost my Venture 60 to elevator flutter. I jsut had to get one more flight in and was doing a high speed pass down the runway. I heard the fluter, but by the time I was able to get the throttle back it was in the ground. I suspect that the push rod may be the culprit.
One interesting note: While the fuselage was totaled the wing was in one piece except for damage from the landing gear folding back under the wing. It must be from good engineering.
