NTSB summary
On November 8, 2025, at 1038 eastern standard time, an Extra 330/SC, N330SL, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Keystone Heights, Florida. The private pilot was fatally injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 flight.

The airplane owner stated that he, along with a few other pilots, planned to practice their aerobatic routines for an upcoming competition. The owner said he flew his practice routine first and reported no issues with the airplane. After he landed, the airplane was refueled, and another pilot boarded the airplane and departed for his practice flight. The airplane owner said he watched the pilot’s entire routine and witnessed the accident. He said the pilot entered the aerobatic box and performed a “warm up figure” which was a lay down figure eight. He then climbed to approximately 3, 500 ft. mean sea level (msl) and re-entered the aerobatic box and executed the first three maneuvers “very precisely.” The third figure ended with a vertical climb with two quarter rolls in the middle of the climb and ended by laying out inverted in preparation for the next maneuver which began with a 1 ¼ inverted spin. The airplane entered the inverted spin; however, it did not stop at the 1 ¼ position as expected. The owner said the airplane spun another ½ -turn, before the pilot was able to stop the turn with th
