Some folks make little mistakes in their work...

John,
The owner was out of town. He called me and asked me to oversee the righting of his airplane. I was getting ready for church, so it was about 9:00 AM or so as I recall. We did not get finished until late afternoon. It took a giant wrecker and a couple of very well trained mechanics to lift it. Fortunately when it was lifted, the wheels came right out. But the engine had to sent off for a rebuild and the body had a quite a bit of damage.
