I know how you feel, I had my 7x16 Haulmark stolen in Augusta, GA on a military base. It had all of my R/C stuff in it because I lived in the barracks. I lost 2-35%'s,2-helis,several cars and boats, tools and a dozen or so smaller planes. It sucked! I got insurance money for the trailer only. Good luck, from someone who understands!

No word of anyone trying to sell anything off up this way yet, but still looking out for you. Keep us posted if you get any updates on the whereabouts of your stuff.

I'll go look around on ebay. I hate the bums that have to steal to get stuff. We allways keep a huge metal lock on the hitch of our airplane trailer. Ill get some pics of the lock.

I'm almost positive it will turn up, they couldn't be too far away. Just drive around alot and peek behind houses when you drive by. Police didn't do poo when my dirtbike was stolen. Just a tiny dirtbike that some 17 or so year olds stole.

Keep us updated, we'll help ya all we can.

mmm... I got a plan

If by chance you do catch them selling your stuff on some website, I'd just say you'll buy it and meet them where ever. Call the cops and they can give ya a ride to the idiots house .

I'd keep your eyes open on ebay and RCU. I'll keep mine open.

best of luck finding the tools who stole yours, also keep an eye on your local "auto trader" type mags, they might try to sell off the trailer

We had our Truck and Trailer stolen a couple of years ago, and were lucky and got the truck and trailer back a day later but everything in the trailer was gone.
We ended up going through our home owners get it all replaced. Good luck on finding you trailer.

GOOD NEWS!

I got a call yesterday afternoon. My planes and equipment have been found. They have been found in a dumpster about 1.5 hrs from me south in Morgan City LA.

The story i was told, a guy standing outside his buisness saw someone dump a lot of junk into a dumpster out of a trailer. He went over to check it out and found all my planes. They took the planes and equipment out of the dumpster and brought them into their shop. One of the guys working there just happens to be a police officer and helps out there when he isnt on duty. He took pics of my stuff and went to the local hobby store to see if someone had their planes stolen. Well the hobby shop owner recognized my stuff and made a call to the president of the club down there. He called me and gave me the good news. I called the police officer after talking to the hobby shop owner and he told me how it went down. He asked me to describe what was stolen and after that long conversation he said "well pretty much everything you described is here" I then asked him what the damage was. He said "the best i can tell, nothing is broken". AWESOME!

So, now im waiting on the MCPD to finish their report writeup and let me pick my stuff up. No word on the trailer yet. BUt hopefully it will turn up since the location has been narrowed down.
