I got this this a.m. from my old friend Randy K. who flys for K-2 Aviation in Talkeetna, Alaska. A bear mauled this Cub while parked in hunting camp in AK. The owner had not cleaned the plane since a fishing trip so obviously the bear smelled it.
He had 2 new tires, 3 cases of Duct Tape and several rolls of thick plastic wrap brought out to him, repaired the plane and flew it home. I bet, from the look of the right side horizontal stabilizer, he still had to hold a lot of left rudder and stick. Gutsy eh?
