It is not hurt that bad!
When I started tearing the helicopter apart after the crash, I discovered it was not damaged too bad considering it fell about 50 feet. The landing gear, fuselage side frames, canopy and the main gear were about the only things hurt. All the electronics worked fine when I checked them out. I remembered a Jet Ranger body up in the cupboard that I flew years ago, it had a set of side frames and landing gear on it, I had several spare gears, so I started transferring things to it today. I also put up some more trim and finished Vera's second hanger, it was too big, so I ended up sawing it in half and refinishing the ends, now she has a second one to use somewhere. While I was working on it, I felt hot, moist air coming around the dryer, the exhaust duct had come loose! I had to move the washing machine out to get at it and found a scrap of wood that had worked it's way down beside the dryer and shifted it so the duct came apart. This evening I did a little more work on the helicopter, worked on my new P-51B, painted the scaffold plank and took some pictures before coming in to do this.
