Well after 800 hours of TW time I finally bolloxed it up

Taxiing along after landing at Corona California, seen a short pole and sign out the left window, panicked because I realized I was turning into parking to early jammed the brakes on with a 15k tailwind, nosed it over, prop shagged. First damage/ accident in 1100 Hours and 20 odd years of flying

Bugger bugger bugger bugger bugger bugger bugger and bugger again.

Sitting on a bench outside airport waiting on an Uber, would like to give myself a good beating.
