Like Brett said it's part of the learning process. We have all don it and if someone says they have not they are not try hard enough. One year at the team trials I did a 3 inch inverted pull out and wiped out my rudder and prop on pavement. Same thing as happened to you the wind was too much for the plane or I was trying too hard. Kind of embarrassing in front of the top guys. But oh well I tried,
That makes me feel better. Some say I get a wee enthusiastic about things but why not.
In looking at the post-crash I realized I have some flop in my flaps at the metal control horn that joins the two flaps. I will beef that up and fix the and make a new horizontal stab that broke at the fuse.
Glad to hear I am not alone!
Thanks for your comment. I love your site here.
As Sparky says, we've all done it. Just stay with it and lets not have a burn out from too much. I've seen that too many times.
Thanks Doc. I am all good with this and understand failure! I'll have the Prowler back better than before and look forward to getting good at this.
If your gonna do it....over-do it)))))
I cleaned the engine good and bench ran it today after checking the tank. I was happy with the run.
So....on the way.
Still mulling the repair strategy.
