Hi All,
So does this mean engine out and rebuild ?

Geoff. :confused:

Maybe not a rebuild but it could be, engine out for sure. Checks will be made on the crankshaft, pistons and bores to see what damage has been done.

Don’t think I’m an expert, I’m not. The last prop strike (and the only one was about 1980ish) A prop hit the ground and bits went all over. The pilot did the right thing and cut the engine, however the a/c still wanted to self destruct ASAP.

I have to agree with AA, to taxi with a damaged prop made me wince as well.

At the end of the day it was an accident, he shut have the engine off and forget about the other a/c.
It was also an emergency, the pilot should have cut the engine, just for a saftey reasons. That lad who picked up the tip didn’t have to go far to pick up the tip!

Rob, any more pics of the Beau please.
I need to get down to Duxford. The last time I got to Duxford the Beau didn’t look like an a/c.

The April issue of Flypast shows it going into a custom container.

May be able to help. From what I have read FS2004 should work with Windows7.

My neighbour used dog walkers as on occasion neither he nor his wife would be at home for a full day, the dog walkers used to go around at lunchtime thus giving the dogs human contact.

I personally try not to leave my dog more than an hour or so if I can possibly avoid it. In the south of France summer is not the time to go shopping with the dog.

My beef as well, if you work full time don’t have a dog!!

Get a cat that will go and kill all the local wild life and birds. But that’s another subject.

Saab likes cannards so one from Beech, the Starship.

I have seen it in the background of a few photos in the Duxford thread. It’s looking very complete but dusty, so I guess it’s worked on as and when. I would like to see some more photos and update as well.
