Apparently a trike trailer unhitched and hit an oncoming car.

I know that feeling all too well. Will never forget the day that I got a call to come to the airfield urgently. Hangars were blown away by a freak storm. There were trikes on the roof of the row of hangars behind where my hangar used to be. There were trikes mangled in a corner against a back wall. My trike was blown into the boundary fence where it got stuck and was smashed too bits. Even my venter trailer that was in the hangar was blown away more than 50 meters from where it was parked.

I can honestly say, i cried...... walked to the clubhouse, got a beer and just sat there for a good 15 minutes before I could do anything :cry:

I feel for the owner of that trike.

Slightly effected. Very lucky as an RV prop shreds a hanger door like confetti. Two Shraprel wounds in the keel cover visible, but Jenya coming to do a full inspection. Some bodywork scratches.
