I went looking for a FAA accident report on NC29943 and couldn't find any as yet. It may be too early, but I did find photos taken by an aircraft salvage company. It wasn't pretty, looks like a total to me. It showed the rear cockpit which was intact so I would imagine Steve's (W0JOV) injuries would have been minor, maybe some facial and leg injuries (knees). The propeller was sheared off so that doesn't fair well for the engine. I couldn't get a web address to work that showed the damage but maybe if you are interested you can do a Google search for "NC29943". I have the phone number of his law office so I may give him a call so see how he faired.
