Planes lost this year- an obituary

[davidk]

Some clarifications...

Los Tres Amigos... and... The Remains of the Day.

re: Frank... not just glue... EPOXY.

Overall... that one's a heart breaker.

There were lots of crushes. RIP V900 x2 x 3 repairs.  war wing stood strong until the end of the season and will be resurrected next year.

Have to say Vadim, that the look on your face is very recognizable and one we've all worn.

I'm not sure the Warwings are valid, however.  Since they are easily resurrected, and, destined for destruction, they are out of the category.  They do look excellent, though.  Thanks for the pics.

Ok to all them guys that have lost planes
Sorry For Your Losses
Or maybe you lost parts of your plane and could not find them
Well the farmer has harvested the beans last night and the field is clear for you to find you missing parts

The parts recovered may not be in the shape you had expected or desired.  Stupid combine!

When I showed up at the field this afternoon (Tuesday) and I saw the beans had been cleared I did a perimeter walk and found an intact battery cover or hatch... green and white stripe.  I think it belongs to Jim Spence.  I saw a few other scraps... broken props and shredded foam.
