Indeed extremely lucky that the wing did not come off,the front wing bolt must have sheared (or the mounting bracket) and the main spar will be toast.If they can source another wing – and if the fuselage damage is repairable – they might be able to fly it again.

Shame – I doubt there are many chippies flying in S America.
