Exhaust pipe flattened and cowl dented. Doesn't sound like much but cowls
go for fifteen grand and everything down to the manifold and mounts will
have to be disassembled and checked for cracks.
Who would have thought? The plane that hit us was on the side and the wind
was directly on the tail. The twin jumped one chock and pivoted around over
90 degrees on either the wing tie down or the other chock and its nose came
up and hit ours from the downwind side.

****. It really is a bad night. The airport just called to tell me that
the big twin on the next tie down jumped its chocks and blew into our
plane.
I'm waiting for a damage report.

Sorry to hear that. Let us know when you find out.
Good Luck!
