Don't Forget the Duct Tape!
During a private "fly-in" fishing excursion in the Alaskan wilderness, the chartered pilot and fishermen left a cooler and bait in the plane. And a bear smelled it. This is what he did to the plane.The pilot used his radio and had another pilot bring him 2 new tires, 3 cases of duct tape, and a supply of sheet plastic. He patched the plane together, and flew it home!
Nice Job!
Nice Job!

Most excellent craftsmanship for a "quick" fix. I would fly with you in Alaska, as long as you had a spare radio. Just in case the Bear got hungry for "FM".
