Ahoj Jozinko, At Wagga one of the Trikes had a hard landing after getting in the wake turbulance of a REVO. It hit the runway hard and then got airborne, but the aircraft had gone full throttle. The pilot shut the engine down, but the aircraft stalled and crashed to the ground. The pilot was badly inhured and the Passenger walked away.
I just saw this photo. Sorry about Frank getting hurt, but at least he's alive & passenger is well. I didn't know that advantage of Winglets on BioniX-- Cool !!! Get well soon Frank.
Wow, that trike was pretty crunched up. Looks like you in the photo helping out the authorities. I'm going to post this over in the CSI (accident) group discussion here.
