Looks like Capn' Jack flew his Ventus scale model into the powerlines!!!
Yeah, he did. I was packing up my tent in the camping area when I heard
a clatter that sounded like someone kicking the port-a-potty over.
Turned around, and I saw the Ventus spiraling down near the towers.
Looked around and saw Capn' Jack walking over from about 1/4 mile. Poor
ol' Grover was ejected from his pilot seat :) Some good chunks out of
the wing, and it looks like the joiner broke, but the fuse looked to be
in one piece. Sad to see it, but I'd be willing to bet it'll be back in
the air in the future.
