@@uncletonyppg326 pull start got in prop first time, took the airbox with it. Tuesday it airbox cracked came off and left the boot and filter on. Got to be my fault, for not getting the strap on tight. Mad at myself
@@jerryp9375 A thorough preflight usually prevents damage from happening but freak things happen. My harness under seat zipper pocket was open, Prop thrust pulled my riser bag out and caught the prop. Apparently it made a few revolutions before snagging my airbox.
@@uncletonyppg326 I have been flying ULs since the mid 90s, and every mishaps seems to trace back to us pilots, not doing something, or a series of doing things wrong. Air box coming off, all on me, I should have paid attention, and checked my work
