N29BT,
Sorry about your crash. I know it hurts to see a plane hit the ground. From the looks of your pictures it doesn't look all that bad. I know at first it may have seemed really bad, but usually if you wait a few days and go back to it the damage won't look as bad. It happens that way to all of us. That just comes from feeling bad about crashing. I never make a decision to trash a crashed plane at the field just because of this. I will take it home and put it up for a few days, then I'll go back and asses the damage to see if it's repairable. From your pictures it sure looks like it can be fixed.

This is the first time here on RCU that I've seen vultures in here. Poor man crashes his plane and people are asking for parts from it. ouch.
