NTSB accident and incident record under N38JK
Aircraft on the NTSB record: John H. Korb Jr. KITFOX III · serial 751
The failure of the right landing gear shock cord because of ultraviolet deterioration in an area of abraded outer fabric, that resulted in a loss of directional control on landing and subsequent ground collision. Factors were the owner/builder's failure to replace the worn shock cord, and the kit manufacturer's failure to include its replacement in the annual inspection checklist.
