So - This was good enough to justify a new thread - Practise day for the DA Challenge - and the Mc Bogan (Frazer Briggs) putting the 260 through the wall - Folds a wing - and brings it into land - so here is the vid and photos |

Not only lands with the one wing but gets up the next day and takes out the first round of unlimited in the DAC with the same model! Nice work Bogan!!

From what I heard there was a popped gear plate and the left stab copped a bit of damage, pretty impressive all the same!!

Very impressive, it came in alot slower than when TD had it happen. I guess that's the difference in models.

Bogan did also have a bit of wing there hangin out the side, plus that folded up wing would have helped increase the side area!! LOL!

Total disregard for equipment. Thought I would only see this sort of behaviour with a foamy. LOL. Me thinks he's tryin' to psych out the Aussies.
