OUCH!! Looks expensive huh? not really too bad. The wing spar was OK. the wing tip bow was $179 lost revenue was the greatest problem. There was a full load of students coming in two days! They were very understanding and took turns in the other cub which was repaired in time. It made for a great instruction tool.

The winds in AK are notorious. This is what can happen to a Super Cub dispite being tied to the dock with water pumped into the outside float and submerged buckets hanging from the struts. You can imagine how strong the gust was that did this damage by lifting the outside wing and impailing the inside wing on a 2x4 fastened to the dock.
