Salvage
As a cruiser of the various salvage sites, I found this one interesting for several reasons.
https://www.usau.com/caf_claims_salv...l.php?SA_Id=82 1. Wonder what the story is on the accident, as the field looks to be pretty open. 2. Additional Condition 2 is understandable (not providing FAA Bill of Sale, as it is a Canadian registered plane). 3. Additional Condition 3 seems a bit odd. The other plane on their salvage listing says nothing about removing the dataplate and returning it to the manufacturer. And I had not noticed this condition before on any of their previous salvage listings. Value of that salvage just dropped a whole bunch. Unless you are needing an AS-W20 rudder or canopy. I guess that is better than the salvage recovery "specialists" that use saws to remove wings from gliders. Steve Leonard |

Steve Leonard Those folks don't know how to sell salvage and manage to get almost nothing as a result. I'm not sure why they put barriers in to make it harder to restore to flying condition. It just makes it a much bigger pain in the butt. They probably will report it destroyed, which adds another irritating hurdle. Dumb. UH |

I have seen one of these as it happened, and the aftermath of a couple of others. Not a good thing to see. Glad to hear the pilot lived to learn. Then, there is the PW-5 on AIG... Wonder how big the field was? http://www.aigaviation.com/aviations...SalvageId=1820 At least these guys don't remove data plates. |
