I feel for ya Toedwy. I too wrecked on my first flight. cheap material in the kit let go. Not a whole lot of damage so I fixed it. Went out and did the "taxi around" thing, got up too much speed, took off and did a cork screw into the ground. Ripped out everything back to and including the firewall. Fixed it again, took her up and totalled it. I was ready to give up. Instructor talked me out of it. Bought a new plane and haven't looked back since.

Bottom line give it a little time, cool down and take another look. If you have no doubts about retiring, then you are making the right decision. However you may be surprised and stick with it. Good luck with whatever decision you make.
