Default RE: Extreme Flight 88

Sorry to hear of the loss. I also lost my first EF Yak after 20 flights. Hit a tree on landing approach - plane was a total loss. Wasn't used to the size and thought it was in front of the trees when it was still behind. Bought a new one that night and now do very short approaches. By the way, I use a rubber washer (available in the plumbing dept. of Home Depot) with each wing bolt. The rubber cinches down without stressing the nylon bolt.
