Is the airplane able to be ferried back home? It's got to be a real pain trying to do major repairs over a long distance.
No pain at all, I get to come back and break it in (no pun) on the way home. Canyon Mesa Aviation (Sedona) has been very helpful and will be the general contractor. Air Craftsman (Prescott) will be tearing down the engine and upgrading my 400 hr (verge of dying) Cermichrome cylinders to ultra high speed steel cylinders (Watch out Stuka) etc. The prop will be serviced in Tuscon. Dr. Jurg Sommerauer (Sedona) will be doing the belly/flap/cowling glass repairs. I will return in 6 weeks to help with final touches and fly her home to be painted.
Thanks for the offer of help. The aviation community is great, even Mac, the airport manager, has covered for me in the Red Rock News front page story "Pilot Lands Safely Without Wheels Down" by saying that it was not determined if it was due to pilot error or mechanical failure.
