Hi Kevin,
Sorry to hear of your mishap. Kim Prout had an outrigger leg break on
landing at Livermore once. We gave him one of our legs from out kit to
get him home. Fortunately for him, no damage to the prop, etc. We now
keep a spare leg in our plane, just in case.
Regards,
Terry

Hi All,
While taxiing today on pavement my left outrigger gear leg snapped off.
I pulled the brake, and the Airmaster warp drive blades hit the asphalt
and shredded.
Has anyone heard of an outrigger leg snapping off like that? I thought
they were supposed to bend a lot without breaking.
very sad Kevin
