At first, she’s flying east, then she turns left to the northeast, then she turns right to the southeast,
perhaps for a straight-in final for runway 13? (see diagram)

How does one stall at 180 mph on straight-in short final in an Extra? That would require a +9G pull, right?

Update: engine failure. Landed on runway at 180 mph, apparently 8000 feet of runway wasn’t long enough.

The trick is that they are ground speeds (not airspeeds) from the ADS-B GPS and you have to confirm mph vs knots.

In this case the wind was 070/6 and a local confirmed the 180 mph landing which resulted in the substantial overrun of the 8000 foot runway.

The tower tapes mention a failed engine. Listen to them.

Also with Flightaware, it tries to smooth over discontinuities. You have to look at the raw data log, not their representation of it.
