Read the full NTSB narrative

On July 12, 2026, at 1018 mountain standard time, a Remos GX airplane, N126GX, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Glendale, Arizona. The flight instructor and student pilot were uninjured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 instructional flight. According to the flight instructor, the student pilot was practicing landings at Glendale Regional Airport (GEU), Glendale, Arizona. The student performed a go around and, during the initial climb, he stated that the airplane’s pitch control was “delayed.” After taking the flight controls the instructor observed that the airplane did not respond to pitch control inputs. The flight instructor was able to maneuver the airplane using the ailerons, rudder, full nose up pitch trim, and engine power. During the final approach to runway 01, the airplane lost altitude and impacted terrain, resulting in substantial damage to the airplane’s fuselage. Examination of the airplane revealed that the rear elevator control rod had fractured about three inches forward of the elevator quick disconnect. (See figure 1.) Figure 1: The separation in the rear elevator control rod, circled in yellow. According to maintenance records, the rear elevator control rod had been installed in December 2025 and had accrued 445 hours in service. The airplane wreckage was retained for further examination.
