Morning Kolbers, I dodged the bullet again, well, almost. I got grazed. I keep my FlagFly hangared in a converted construction office trailer. Unfortunately, the airstrip is on the top of a hill with pretty nasty winds. When Sandy roared through she flipped my trailer 11/4 revolutions. The trailer is destroyed but amazingly the FlagFly sustained minimal damage. Both the owner of the airstrip and I are about done with trying to keep a trailer upright so it looks like we're going to put the FF in the end of the hangar. It'll cost more (less in the long run, I suppose), but it will take less time to set up, not having to untie and set up ramps, etc. The damage to the aircraft is a bend in the trailing edge of the left elevator, a bend from the prop to the trailing edge of the left wing, loosened aileron anti-flutter weights and one 1' and about 7 small tears in the fabric. I'm a landscaper and an 18 wheeler jockey and don't feel qualified to perform the repairs properly, so I'm looking for a builder I can hire to repair the wings and elevator. I can load the parts on my pickup and take them to the repair point so they won't have to travel. If you are interested in the job or know of anyone who may be, please contact me. I'll attach (if I'm successful) a few shots of the damaged parts, and a couple of the trailer, which should leave you dumbfounded, as it did me, that the FlagFly came through so well. When you open the last two photos it may be difficult to tell where the actual wrinkles are and what's been painted by Don G., but If you look for a few moments you can make sense of it. Oh, and take a look at the wind sock...

Dave: Sad to hear about your damage, but very pleased that she is repairable. The pix of your trailer were scary to see... especially since the Kleenex Fly sits in a similar trailer close by the fickle and unpredictable Gulf. After viewing your trailer event, am tempted to go install more hurricane anchors on mine. Hang in there... I am pulling for your early recovery and return to flight status. The hangar option sounds good.

Sad to hear about your damage, but very pleased that she is repairable. Beauford I echo Beauford's sentiments. Never gave a storm a chance to damage any of my three Kolbs. Didn't have to. I was able to total all three of them all by myself. ;-) john h mkIII Titus, Alabama ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message kolb-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kolb-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/kolb-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/kolb-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
