Default Plane in tree, suggestions on how to get down?

Well after flying solo all day long, I finally got ahead of myself and got it in a tree, at the VERY top. It hit hard and in fact, the firewall broke and i have my engine. But the reciever, battery, and servos are still in the plane...


We have tried buying PVC pipe and extending it up the tree but that dind't work, it was too flimsy even with 2 inch pipe.


It must be about 60 FT up in the tree.

Somoene said call the fire department and see if they would get it.... anyone got experience in this? Climbing the tree is impossible as there are VERY few branches until you get about 1/2 up the tree.
