Lee,
I really feel for ya. It must be hard to see the duck with a broken leg. However I guess your lucky the damage was not worse and nobody was hurt. Give me a call if I can help.

Not a Duck story, but......
Many years ago, a seagull feel asleep standing in a puddle on the runway at Lake Placid. With one foot frozen in place, he began chewing his way free. A local pilot on an early morning flight, took out his Leatherman and snip the gull free. For a long time, we put food out in front of the hangar and watched that gull made the most beautiful one legged landings!

Thanks Guys, Monday May 1 2006. The adjuster will be here and see what they will do. Would love to repair the duck, not that bad really. The biggest thing is the engine. Not a bad prop strike, but one never the less. Considering making it an A-75, should I keep this engine. Second choice is find an C-85 and do the 0-200 mod. Or, if I could find a good 85, bolt that on.

I'll post exactly what I will be needing as soon as we figure it all out.
