Thanks to everybody for the well wishes and offers to help, really makes me proud to be part off the Microlighters scene!! 
Luckily I have insurance so should be ok, the KFA factory is coming to take a look at the damage and my AP is going to check the motor then will take it from their. Will keep you guys in the loop.

Had alook at the damage and its not that bad. Most damage is to the engine and prop but the frame is very economically repairable especially if someone wanted to do the repairs as rebuild project.

Re: ZU AXT
Hi Guys, The airframe and wings are in very good shape. I had a good look at it and if you let me do the tail repair and supply new parts like the legs and 1 liftstrut then the airframe will cost you less than R40k to have a perfectly repaired airframe that is covered and painted.

Busy fixing my dads old Jodel (hopefully done by end October) so will be flying that and also have his old Turbulent to fix after. But if things work out I just might keep AXT as a project for my self, don't really want to sell her but money talks!!! Already have several people interested in her and one off them is faaarrrr away
with first rights to AXT, so lets see what happens.Flying feeds the soul!
Re: ZU AXT
This is if you do all the work your self and KFA just the frame repair, excellent project for someone!!!KFA wrote:Hi Guys, The airframe and wings are in very good shape.
