Yes, it was my Wilga. We were taking off in a cross wind and a strong gust
got under the tow plane's wing shortly after take off. The pilot touched
down just off the runway and touched the prop in the dirt, damaging the prop
and ending any chance of climbing out of the situation. He flew another 100
yards, caught the gear on some rocks and flipped it end over end. There
were amazingly only cuts and bruises. I released as soon as I saw him touch
the ground after take off and landed my 2-33 straight ahead on the runway.
