Here's a pic of a Scout in Hk after an incident with a kite. Not very much damage, if at all, if my memory serves me right. String just wrapped round pitch change rods, and can be seen dangling over LH screen/door.

Brute force and ignorance, aswell as a Rolls Royce engine and leather seats. 'Twas the only way.

Makes me think off what happens to the kite fliers hands when it gets wrapped up in the head! oouch!
