My question is: What causes these gravitational fluctuations,
Mike, after extensive digital analyzation of your crash site photo, I can say without a doubt that your crash WAS NOT due to gravitational aberrations! It was the insiduous effects of the dreaded Downlight Turn Syndrome. There's such a excess light/day ratio up there in Alaska at times that this is a huge problem, unbeknownst to most. I had a similar problem with my planes down here in the USA in the summertime. The problem is so severe I've had to go to transparent film covering on all my planes to deal with the effects of excessive light pushing down on my wings!
