A buddy sent this to me in an email today.


Bears are always looking for a meal!

A bear attacked this guy's plane while parked in a remote field up in Alaska..
He had not cleaned out the inside after a long fishing trip and the bear smelled
it. He had 2 new tires, 3 cases of Duct Tape and several rolls of cellophane
delivered. Then went about repairing the plane so he could fly it home. Gutsy
to say the least.

Gotta love stretch wrap and duck tape :)

I did a search on the tail number and came up with the last pic. I assume was taken after proper repairs had been made, as the tail number location has changed.

Those pics need to be sent to Mythbusters as another use for duct tape.

If you missed it on Oct. 14, it was an our long special on duct tape. They lifted a car, made a sailboat, repaired a holey boat, made a cannon, and made a potato gun with duct tape.

Now we have an airplane out of duct tape!



The 1,001 use for duct tape!
