Well, most of you probably saw the tornado that ravished El Reno, OK tonight.  The pretty red white and blue a/c you see from the video being thrust out of his hangar.  Well, it's awful, it will undoubtably be a total loss.  Here are some pics, hope they come through.

   

  Canopy broken, left wing ripped open, rudder and elevator damage, prop destroyed, and tail wheel ripped off...UGH

Smash,



That sucks! I just saw the "non-tornado" on CNN. They called it something else. Regardless, the same damage was done. 



You may be able to get her flying again.

 I am really sorry about your plane. I watched the  live video as the tornado crossed your airport from Tulsa. It was amazing  that anything was left standing. it was really creepy when they revised the  report and said it was not farm buildings but hangars being destroyed. I knew  that some valuable planes were destroyed. Come to Tulsa and you can play with  us.

Well, if you look at the link that one of the boys sent, you will see me talking about Claremore competition....so I *was* planning on coming up there.  I still might.  One of my buddies offered me to fly in his Extra 300L, so it's still possible that I can make it.   Will you be competing in it?

No, I fly light acro in my CJ. I suspect Guy  Baldwin will be competing in his Extra. The Claremore acro box is very  convenient from here.
