Next stop CASA and that sir, makes life tough for everyone
I am advised that representatives of CASA have already introduced themselves to "the dark side" at Holbrook. The decent folk down there are furious I'm told.

As an aside, and not trying to change the topic, but this is the second Sapphire I've personally seen in a major prang where the pilot has walked away more or less without a scratch. It says something of an aircraft I once thought "flimsy", to go through an 80KT sudden stop. I note the tail boom which I thought most fragile appears intact. Top marks for a tough little aeroplane.
