Well I finished the repairs (see attached pictures). They are not beautiful, but this is a trainer so I wasn't really motivated to make it perfect. It looks good enough for me. Actually a friend of mine had the idea to make a Band-Aid out of Monokote to cover the damaged piece. I loved the idea, but my LHS didn't really have a good color to use.

As far as additional damage I gave the airframe a good once over (actually a twice over). I didn't see any structural damage. The firewall wasn't damaged either. I notice that the nose wheel still had some bend in it. Again my LHS didn't have a new one so I pulled it off and straightened it as much as I could. I put it all back together, and after a few pushes down my driveway, and repeated linkage adjustments, it is tracking straight again. I am half tempted to throw the wings on it an run it up and down the street just to make sure

All in all it has been a "fun" experience. I made a structurally sound repair that doesn't look too bad (from just a few feet away you can't even see it). Although mostly I am proud of myself for not just saying "I'm Done" and pulling out my upgrade plane (Big Stick) and flying it.

Thanks for all the advice and support!
