Boyd,

Up to what airspeed did you try to induce flutter by stick bumping?

Well, the Super 6 has a unique airframe/engine combination and to 
develop a Vn plot for the aircraft you have to fly it..  It's called 
test flying.  That's part of the process.  If something would have 
happened, the pilot (me) would have been, let's say "busy", not 
necessarily "surprised", because your mindset has to be that you know 
something could happen (they do have things called parachutes, helmets 
with visors, steel toed boots, Nomex, etc.).  But the 'plane was well 
designed, engineered and built and nothing did happen taking it to the 
edges of its envelope.  But, yes, if you do get true flutter in a 
control surface, the assumption is that it will destruct, which is why I

find it amusing that the aerodynamic guys call it flutter instead of 
disingetrating, or kabooming or simply falling apart--I mean, flutter is

like a little gentle butterfly landing on your finger on a cool summer 
morning.
