Thanks so much for sharing your project with us.

Status: offline 		NO! Let me be the first to comiserate with you. Watching it drop a wing made my stomach churn... I hope you get it back in the air.... you deserve it. This is an amazing aircraft and needs to get airborne. Well done, despite the crash... keep smiling and post some more pictures of the repairs. Maybe that fibreglass plug would have been a good idea eh?!

My words from the very beginning....
I'm sorry for the crash, i feel deeply with you. I lost my Sabre in a similar way (crosswind, no rudder, too slow, too much inputs to avoid a roadsign...).
judging from the video the damage should not be irrepairable....i hope. Amazing plane and superb craftsmanship on the top-notch finish :-)
I hope you get her together quickly, and dang, make a plug.

Best regards
Hank
