Garrett Gee Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 Glad the you and your home fared ok. Sorry to see the hangar your CT is stored in though. On a side note though, and this might be helpful to some users. My insurance company, and from what I hear, others may to, provide relocation help in the event of hurricanes. My insurance provider will provide up to $1000 to help move an aircraft out of the disaster area, to include movement, storage/hangar costs, etc. I don’t live directly on the coast, but hurricanes have been know to make it as far inland as I live. This could definitely save some heartache. Hope recovery goes well. Gee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

procharger Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 At my airport we had 15 planes come from Greenville NC to get away from flooding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Baker Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 Depending on how high the water got it might not be to bad. I work on a CT that has been through a flood. It had an engine tear down, avionics and wiring replaced, and parachute replaced. There is still evidence of the flood several years later. I had to replace a gearleg, and it took 3 times as long to remove it as it normally takes to completely change one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vance Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 This is my home field as well. Fortunately, my CTLS is in Elkhart, IN right now, 800’ ASL. Oliver, sorry you’re going through this. Hoping your gear is wet but the rest is OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
