Hi everyone, Mark I hope this will make you feel a Little better,on March 4th. I was doing touch and goes.The winds were 270 15G25 I was set up for landing on 19 at Lafayette, Tn. Well the first thing I thought of was was the weather briefing my wife gave me as I left the house.I THINK IT'S REALLY WINDY OUT THERE. What I thought was just a hard landing turned out to be much more. Prop strike and firewall damage. Everyone is involved NTSB, FAA and insurance company, the last three weeks have been quite a deal.
