Ratchet strap up first

Found a couple on our travels today. A standard rotten crown snap and a very very wee hazard beam fracture.

All we've done today is clear up windblown trees and branches

 

These are the pics of the 3 trees down, we went to a further 5 jobs were large branches had snapped out.

 

Makes you wonder, the wind hasn't been that strong here but it hasn't been the normal prevailing westerly wind, its been a swirly easterly one:001_huh:

Fairly rare event to see a Plane failure of that dimension.

Pretty weak inclusion by the look of it.

 

Wonder if it was one of the known weaker clones

 

Any chance of finding out its provenance Rob?

 

 

 

No worries if you're just a mere mortal and can't find anything out
