He might have forgot the wing clips?!

What a bummer! Hope he has his 102" with him to continue.

Here is the direct qutoe from my flightline source...

"Seth's wing tube failed and he lost a wing. He brought it around and landed but it disintegrated on landing."

Seth's crash sucked bad..
He did a great job getting it back to the runway but, it hit hard as he was trying to roll it flat for touchdown. Basically blew up at that point.
Really sad to see.

I will try and get pics of the scores as soon as all the IMAC classes have been scored and posted.

On a personal note, My Unknown slid me from 1st to 4th.
Little mistakes make a huge difference in standings when everyone is flying so well..
