a friend of mine just lost his v-tail on takeoff; however it was carberated and the alt air door spring broke and folded back over the intake of the carb, killing the engine @ 100' after takeoff with his kids aboard. had a large runway and bellied in in, with all safe. a/c is scrap. it usally isn't the big buck items that cause big expenses as in this case a buck spring cost 60k.
