Wow, thanks for the great replies!
Vic, Paul told me about your article, and I'm looking it up now (thanks to you both!). Mark, thanks for the number, called Jeff today, and will get together with him (thanks to you, Paul and Jeff!).
James handled it well. The hawk...not so much. There has been a hawk sitting on Sport 4 and/or 5 from time to time for years. Not sure if that was him, but it was definitely a bad time to hunt that day. While we all feel bad about the demise of the hawk, we are very grateful he wanted to ride in the right seat, and not in the left
The trophy we gave James is an eagle, but bronze, so it looks like a...well...lets just say the expression on James' face when we gave him the award was...priceless! Humor was, and is, a good coping mechanism. And riveting, glassing and sanding is cathartic...that's what we'll tell ourselves!  (This is the education part of "recreation and education, eh!  )
Cheers,
Bob

Sorry to hear this Nasty. I flew by you yesterday headed back from a golf junket in Palm Springs and thought of you. Didn't have time to stop by. I fueled at Carson, didn't see Datyon's rig at his hangar, tipped my wing to Paul and Louise,, Mike, etc..., and kept on trucking home.... to make a date with my wife.
Open invite as always next time your up this way...

Wow Fast Progress on the repairs
If F6 isn't too badly bent you may be able to just leave in place and tweak it a bit. It is pretty flimsy before installed and the aft baggage compartment panels hold it in shape.
