Having watched the salvage people haul my airplane away (they are NOT
careful in any way whatsoever), I would have liked to see how they
handled this one in the tree ... wonder how much is left of the tree.


I was doing a runup while it was partially removed. Today I noticed
that they cut off what may have been the trunk that held up the left
wing. Since I was going flying I did not stop to watch the process.
Since the plane was totaled anyway any additional damage was moot.
However, the engine may have been ok.
