Training Aircraft seriously bent at Parafield

Looks like an AFTC trainer clipped a wing on landing and ended up somewhat "bent". Apparently no serious injuries.

Pity about that poor little Grob. Fortunate outcome for occupants however. It was the most perfect WX for aviation in Adelaide today.

FTA's not having a great run this year so far.

Yesterday (Friday) was a great day for flying as well. Smooth air!

I flew that bad boy a few years back, up to GFPT. VH-JVT is its twin over there.

I think it was JVS that had it's windscreen smashed in by some hoods a few years back. They only had waist high fences around the airport then.

Write off?
