It doesn't surprise me that damage isn't in the logs.

In 1969 I picked up a new Cessna A185E, N2764J, in Witchita. Right next to
it was N2777J. A month later I saw N2777J completely wrapped up into a
ball of scrap aluminum, with some EDO floats sticking out of one end.

Years later a friend of mine showed me his new airplane at Kenmore Air
Harbor. It was N2777J. I commented on how nice they did on the re-build.
You can guess the next.

The airplane was represented as a NDH, and NOTHING about the COMPLETE
rebuild was in the logs, not a word.


Are you sure it was the same aircraft?
