bassfisher -> And you think your plane is toast (4/6/2008 4:21:11 AM)

You think that your plane is toast after a crash, well maybe so, but usually a little CA will go a long way. But these might need some JB Weld and some rivets. Seriously, the attached photos were taken by myself on the early afternoon of April 4, 2008 at the North Little Rock Airport, N. Little Rock, AR. All the damage was from an estimated F1 tornado that made a direct hit on the ramp during the late evening of April 3, 2008. I worked and flew a few of these planes back in the undergrad days in the early 80's, I really got to know them like some people know thier classic cars. I'll miss them, especially N2490K, one of the primary trainers that I built up a lot of flight hours in. To let you know, the tornado jumped over my house as I live less than 1 1/2 miles from the airport. Thanks God that only property damage occured and no known deaths. Many people were affected throughout the path of the storm and may your prays go out to them. I can say that the National Weather Service and local TV station weatherpeople did an outstanding job that night on keeping everyone informed. My thanks go to them!
