Photos As Promised

About a week ago, a pretty severe thunderstorm hit KIWA. A couple of ATP aircraft, one Piper Seminole and one Cessna 172SP, were nearly destroyed. An 85-90 knot gust picked up the Seminole, turned it upside down and dropped it on top of the 172. From what I understand, someone was attempting to tie down the Seminole when the wind gust hit. Luckily, nobody was injured. Here are a couple of photos of the remains.















A friend has photos of the aircraft when before they were separated. Hopefully I'll have that photo soon and will add it.
