Default 100cc yak hole diggin

I totaled it. Photo op and I went for a low level inverted pass and dumb thumbed a hole in the ground.

All the expensive stuff survived but the plane is a total loss.

Anyone interested in a wing for a AW 100cc yak RWB color scheme? it's the only thing that survived.

DERN IT.

Tony,
You make quite a farmer, ya know? I don't think I can get my furrows that straight! All that speckly stuff...... Is that the new balsa based fertilizer/weed killer stuff they've been raving about in "Farm Report" magazine? LOL! Just pulling your leg a bit.... I feel your pain!

If i remember right they measured the hole and it was 1.5 in. deep at the tip

It was a 40% carden with a da 150 on cans that came straight down at full throttle from about 300-400 feet

Ok, maybe mine wasn't so bad then.

Good lord. That's like making snow angels with an airplane.

OMG that pic is crazy. It almost reminds me of a full scale accident when they turn it into a post hole digger.

Wow..... wow!!!! oww oww ow!

Does anyone have the high resoultion photo of that? I've never seen anything quite like it. There was a Irvine .40 powered plane that went straight in (wide open) when I was in college. It took both hands to pull the motor out of the ground. The firewall was a few inches below ground level.
