Sorry to see this, trouble with tie downs are they need to be absurdly strong to do any good, and often the anchors can become suspect at those forces anyhow on small fields. Or the tie down points rip out. That appears to have been a hell of a storm.

Wow
You know how to make a tear-jerker YouTube vid.
My heart breaks for you.
I can see how it was like losing a best friend.
I wish you the best luck in finding a solution/replacement.

Tough deal for sure. Sorry for your condition.
Have you contacted the guy with the Maul for sale on this forum?
Seems like a good plane. I'm not a Maul guy but anyone on this site seems to be a good egg.

That's a damn shame. I feel for you man. I hope you can work out some solution to get fixed up and flying again.

So sorry man. This will eventually pass, but will suck for a bit.

Oh wow.
Have you had any more thoughts on rebuild vs walk away? I am assuming it is insured.
