There are going to be a lot of aircraft write offs. So many wet and soggy aircraft.
Q. What happened to the Belfast? Did it get more than a bird bath splash.
Think of any aircraft with magnesium components in the water.
The insurance companies are going to have their hands full with claims, in addition to all those cars around town that will also be write-offs.

Next question what happened down at Archerfield. Wind damage. Tie downs not holding. Cessna Caravan turned over. Said to have been 13 aircraft damaged as a result of the high winds.
Again the insurance guys will be burning the midnight oil on Christmas day with the Reindeers bring insurance claims to them.
