Adam Oswald got some help to get Brad Clayton's Q40 out of the tree. From the pictures Adam sent Brad, it looks repairable.

Greg, as I understand it Mother Nature sent Brads plane down while the tree climber was there. High winds and rain. That thing was way up there. Adam did say it is repairable. Win for us. Thank you Mother Nature Again !!

Tom, Adam had to call me to have Brad call him, so I got some first hand info from Adam. Unless I misunderstood, the wind dislodged it to some lower branches, but the climber Adam sought for help, still had to climb the tree. That's why some $.$$ changed hands, but in the end it was a reasonable price to pay. By the way Tom, thanks to you and your club for all the work that you all put into your race.
Re: GCRCC/CAPS 20th MOONSHOT RACE.
When we got back to the field with a boom lift a storm had rolled through and dislodged the plane from its original location. After some looking we found it was in a much smaller tree which the tree man was able to climb and I was able to assist by climbing into some honey suckle to take the plane from him as he came down. Mother nature did most of the work but that crazy tree line still made us do some a well. That tree line has a whole lot of thorns, which makes things even more fun.
