Street talk is nose down trim on T/O, PIO due heavy back pressure on breaking ground and slammed down on nose taking out the nose wheel/strut. Strut found, but minus nose wheel which seems to have gone into orbit.
Ooooooh!
That would do it alright.
..... but its not like Bonanzas are heavy in the elevators like a C210. I am not going to try a full nose-down trim TO just to prove it to myself, but I suspect that if you just put two hands on the wheel and held it at the right nose attitude you could handle it.
I suspect broken spar = write-off!

Mmmmmmm.... don't know what happened... but it sure looks expensive!!
I know there is a Maintenance outfit at W Sale with a good Beech reputation that can probably fix it.

Ultralights...I'd love to see more piccies of the Skyhawk. I built a model (plastic) or two of the Skyhawk as a wee lad. One of them was in that RAN livery & was probably the best I ever built. Drop tanks, deployed spoilers & all the detail below...I'd better stop, I'm getting all misty now....

KTL - you are of course correct. Terrible slip-up on my part.

What it lacks in "P" it probably makes up in "Pee". Have made a few contributions myself over the years!

OK some of you will recall me posting this cricket pitch as an airstrip
And many of you scoffed and wondered what on earth could operate out of such a short strip in among the trees and hills.........well without giving too much away, this might tell you the bird is back in the nest!
Good effort by the skipper!
