Damage at KSAF this morning.

[Bob R.]

Had a snow squall warning this morning. Blew through around 5-6am. At least 3 planes damaged at KSAF.

Ooof.  You gotta imagine the damaged aircraft weren't adequately secured, given the intact-looking little Ercoupe in the background...

Looks like a recent purchase.  Does anyone know if the owner is on Mooneyspace?

I imagine it would be okole-squeezing, as they might say in Hawaii....

We had max wind gusts of 98 mph here yesterday.  Russell just west of us topped the state with gusts of 100 mph.  The worst part was that the wind gusts were over 55 mph for 9 hours straight!

Check out this guys tie downs. Gotta wonder if they are hoping for this, I mean if you can’t afford a couple dock lines from Amazon one can only imagine the maintenance neglect. You can still see the knot and it’s still attached to tie loop.  Wasn’t the planes fault
