I did not want to be the first one to publish this, and so, I waited. No one published yesterday, so here it goes:

It is my understanding that the airplane was damaged but there were no serious injuries.

Saludos,


Tulio

Always glad to hear that no one was hurt.
Other than just pride.

Looks like she got in to the weeds and went up on her nose in soft ground.
You can see mud on one of the prop blades, that look otherwise to have escaped serious (obvious) damage.

The news reporter speculates that the aircraft is repairable. Hmmm...... ....ya think?

Damage was not as bad as it could have been. left wing tip and aileron, bent the prop a little when it went into the mud and up on it's nose, so engine teardown and inspection required. Will know more after mechanic and adjuster get finished.
