It’s like car insurance, it depends what he has the hull insured for, if its low then that is what he will get, say the aircraft is worth on the market £80K but he has it insured for £60K then if it can be repaired it will be, but if not he will get what it is insured for, engine life can play a big factor in costs too.

Personally I could rebuild that, It might need some underwing and flap skins and spars and gear parts, also the front end and floor skins and rear fuselage sorting etc and the engine shock load testing plus prop, but once lifted it might not be as bad as it appears, but it’s all down to cost… that’s the killer and it’s mainly labour costs. you often find once you start unbolting stuff the creases etc spring back as the bent items were simply putting a loading on parts.. odd the prop appears feathered.

My mate bought a written off 260 that was simply down to wing damage, he ordered the parts and rebuilt it, then sold it on at a healthy profit.
