A very sad end to an adventure for all involved. Thought I would check out the 1770 Castaway website - there is a very interesting video which shows the aircraft having a very close encounter with a wayward cardboard box while taxiing out of the hangar.

A further update.
13 on board, engine failure after takeoff all on board exited the aircraft. A great result!

Nice video, some interesting angles!

This video is well worth watching. The effort these guys went to to recover this aircraft and make her airworthy is amazing. Don't miss the ending!

Hi, I've just got back into flying after a break of some 20 years due to raising a family. Great to be part of the Recreational Flying family.

Unlucky fisherman hit by a "glider"
in Aircraft Incidents and Accidents
Posted
The NZ Herald is reporting (As all informed journalists do) the story about a "glider" (I suppose it was as it was making a forced landing) striking an unlucky fisherman in the head. I hope he is OK.
