Help me out here guys...

Look at this pile of aluminum and help me figure out a bid. I plan on calling AIG about this airplane. Looks like it might be the answer to my problem (left horizontal stabilizer)... with some left over parts.

is that blood on the panel?

I don't think I'd want that plane if it is.

Good luck in your parts search.

Actually this airplane had two occupants, both of which sustained injuries in the accident and it most likely is blood. (See NTSB report below)

I just need some tail parts. Avionics in the panel do not look salvagable to me, nor the engine. The left stab looks OK, but I'll call AIG first, not that I trust them. AIG sold my former Cherokee (totalled out in a flood from Huricane Wilma in Florida last year) sold it as a "flyable aircraft" yet it was soaked in salt water for 5 months, way up into the cockpit floor area and tailcone.

The Metco Aire wingtips on this Cessna look OK as do some other parts... The rest (aluminum) looks like it would make some good soda cans some day in the future.

The left elevator has a big wrinkle in it... makes me wonder about the portions of the left stabilizer hidden from view by the rudder and vertical stab.

Bob,

Probably is blood on the pannel, here is the NTSB report:

Kirk:

I think you are right. And as I looked closer at this, it looks like the juncture at where the left horizontal attaches to the tail has been "tweaked" somewhat.

I thought that plane looked familiar! It was wrecked just a few miles from here. Augered in the ground HARD.

Roy,

I'd try Wentworth aviation before I would use that wreck.

Didnt really apperciate waking up first thing this morning going to the club to see a plane with blood all over it. It actually has quite disturbed me this morning, and I think there should have been a warning on this post before showing that... Rightnow im just little mad about it... Sorry but thats how I feel

Sorry. I didn't see "blood all over" the airplane as you suggest.

I looked at this at 1:00 a.m. and didn't even see any blood at first glance. I was simply looking at "wide shots" of bent metal, mainly the tail section. Someone else saw the small spatters on a close up of the panel and posted the fact. I didn't even look into the panel area until much later this morning, and it was referenced by another poster, so I suspect you had fair warning. Why did you bother looking?

I tend to spill blood on a routine basis here on my farm... (barbed wire fences... ragged metal on the tractor... the list goes on)... My own droppings tends to blend in with the environment and I go about my business.

Having spent 10 years in television news covering murders and hard news on the Texas/Mexico border, and numerous airplane accidents (after two tours in Vietnam) blood stains don't bother me and I gloss over the fact. Sorry if you were offended.
