That still looks like it hurt!!
It's better to break ground and head into the wind than to break wind and head into the ground.
Heard a rumour in YWG from a fueler, in the wind storm we had last week, Thursday I believe, an RJ at the main terminal was picked up and put back down on a tug by a gust. Sounds a bit fishy but I have been in a 727, empty, in a strong wind and the nose oleo was moving almost a foot up and down...
I am calling BS on this one, but maybe someone can prove this true??

Simple,
The airplane must be registered to the operator. In order to operate an airplane, an operator must have his name on the CofR making him the registered owner, but being the registered owner of an airplane (in TC's books) does not mean you are the "legal" owner. To register an airplane, TC requires you to provide either a bill of sale (to prove you own it) or a leasing agreement (to prove you leased it). The legal owner is the company / individual who actually paid the $$ to acquire the airplane.
Should the airplane be damaged beyond economical repair, the "legal" owner gets the $$. The registered owner - who leased the airplane - gets nothing since it is not his airplane. Since the airplane is destroyed the lease will either be canceled or the "legal" owner will purchase an additional airplane with the insurance $$ and continue the lease.
90% (just my guess) of the commercially operated airplanes in this country do not belong to the registered owner / operator. They actually belong to a leasing company who leases them out to the operator. The fact that in 75% of the cases both the leasing company and the operator belong to the same individual is irelavent. It is completely legal and done all the time. It is simply a protection for the investors.
In this case, one could conclude that this specific RJ once flew under AC colors and then went on to fly under Jazz colors. AC must have leased it out to Jazz.

Not to sure if yall remember a few years back there was a big wind storm in ywg, the wind spun a convair 580 that WAS chocked into a navajo putting the prop of the convair through the wing, cutting about a 6 foot strip into it.

I believe a Lear 45 got some damage in that wind storm as well. It was sitting by the navajo and convair. I forget who owned the lear but it was green and white if my memory is correct.Not to sure if yall remember a few years back there was a big wind storm in ywg, the wind spun a convair 580 that WAS chocked into a navajo putting the prop of the convair through the wing, cutting about a 6 foot strip into it.
