Hello Guys,
Some of you may remember my former Ultra Flash resurrection thread:

That Ultra Flash was repaired with great success and has been flying great ever since:

Unfortunately, one of my friends lately crashed his UF when he had an engine cut right after an aborted landing / Go Around attempt.
The damage consists of breaking the entire nose section off (some small pieces went missing) in front of the ducts, and cracking several other areas of the fuselage, nose cone completely cracked, horizontal stabilizer survived, but wing suffered damage to both tips, and to the root area skins, one hardwood wing mount displaced, split open leading edge on one side etc etc.
The damage is quite severe.
Looking at a broken jet such as this one, most people would say "BIN IT!" but we have the magician from Kiryat Gat, Mr. David Ifrah.
David is a professional UAV composite builder (as a profession) and fellow modeler and jet enthusiast. He took one look at the broken UF and said "Ill repair it for you, no sweat!".
So I decided to get the broken jet from my friend and let David work his magic on it.
First pictures im posting show the damage to the jet before the repairs.
Check it out.
