We have also had visitors in the dark of night in the hanger and its a concern that they light shit to see their way around.
Sorry about this chaps and hope you can get back in the air.

7 trikes and a motor glider pretty much all toast. Even the ones that are still standing have melted parts on them, and not sure what effect high heat has on alumunium.

Ons lewe in Afrika..
Daar is orals baie arm donners..wat die hele dag rond loop en plek soek om te steel.
My innige simpatie.
