Lost my Pulsar yesterday.

     Partial power failure at 50'

     Went for a circuit of the pattern.

     The total power failure.

     Landed in Wheat field, was the straight ahead option at that time.

     Wiped landing gear which folded back and took out both rear spars.

     

     Spent night in hospital, no broken bones, but lots of bruises.

     Engine also separated mount on left side.

     Wing look like a total loss.

Bob,

        We had a similar  incident with a Pulsar in South Africa -  damage also similar to yours  - nose gear, main gear , engine mount, holes in fuselage & wings plus damage  to rear spar mountings, With the aid of a Glider Composite Repair Manual we got  it back in the air and looked as good as new.

         Sort  yourself out first from the incident, then have a look at the  problems.

  

          Good  Luck 

                   Keith

Bob,

 Glad to hear you're ok.  Wishing you a quick recovery.

   From what I could gather your pulsar is repairable.   As long as the main spars are good.   You may want to check with Aircraft Spruce they may still have the pattern for cutting them out of wood.  (ACS was the supplier of the rr. spar).   If not the rear spars could be easily fabricated.

Wishing you well and Keep us posted.

I'm verry sorry to hear that you had an accident with the Pulsar. Glad you are O K  

I have a set  of Pulsar wings never used if you are interested.
