Your statement about the damage to the wing roots is not backed up by the picture, it depends what the wheel spat hit and how hard.

Splicing a GRP spar boom is common practice in GRP repair so even damage that would write off a metal aircraft is unlikely to write off a GRP aircraft.

As I said in a post above I had seen nothing on the Utube clip that made me think that the aircraft could not be fixed, I am not saying that it is not beyond economic repair but that I can't see a reason to write the aircraft off on the basis of pictures.
