Mid air collision took out the Orcrist. Hopefully most of the damage is superficial and it will fly again soon.


Oh dear! at least it is superficial unlike a certain Phase 6. Collided with what?:unsure:

My wife says nothing so I assume she is not really interested. The only time she is alert is when the big boxes turn up.:lol:

I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about, David...and really don't care to know either.

I'll post some images later. I said, "hopefully most of the damage is superficial", not that is it superficial. Your P6 damage could/should be fixed in a few minutes with superglue and epoxy.

Collided with your old Wildthing

The left wing must have hit John Bannisters' Wildthing causing it to pull out and rotate on the wing joiner. You can see slight impact damage on the leading edge in the first image (red screwdriver handle in front of impact damage). I don't know whether this also broke the spar or if this broke when it hit the ground. The other two images show damage to the wing skins on both sides.

Fixing the wing will be fairly straightforward.
