And here's a couple shots of what was left when a 126' Carden Extra300 wing failed. Major spinner dip from about 300ft.. Buried the ZDZ180 underground in the farmer's plowed field. Still not sure what caused the wing to fail. I bought this airframe off a guy who had 2 of these built and the second never had a problem.

If you can't have fun with a crash, you shouldn't be flying it!! As John says - all planes have an expiry date, LOL

I'm trying to find the video of a mid-air that Andy and I had... not sure who took the video, LOL.

[Bhughes]

I've seen that video ouch

Not a plane guy. So the question is, how many of these are repairable?

Do you just repair a wing and thats it?

Anything I crash I entertain repairing, but if its not feasable I dont. I have fixed many "trash can" planes that others have tossed out. Most can be repaired but there is a time when one has to say "it's not worth the effort"

Here's One of my big edge 540's The ailr. were to lite and soft. had flutter and ripped them both off at the same time. I almost landed it then the cross wind got it at about 2' off the deck.... Oh well live and learn. Shes almost ready to go again....

Thanks
