RST Engineering wrote: snip It is amazing how fast an airplane turns over on its back when a wing is gone. And I could, almost twenty years later, draw those kids' faces from memory. When I took the wing off of my 172, I was was fortunate enough to have it land on its feet (for the most part). What surprised me was how quickly it stopped flying once the spar had snapped. The lesson I took away from that is that if you're going to hit something, you'd better darned close to the ground when you do it. John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180)
