Yet another data point in favor of the Duct Tape Can Fix
Anything theorem.

On the other hand, given the choice between flying home
on a plane held together with duct tape and walking, I'd
be on foot every damn time.

That's the Alaska spirit. The spray can paint job is a nice touch, but
wholly decorative.

The most essential repair that he had to do was the right rear
elevator. That serves as both a control and lift structure...hell, he
could have stripped the fuselage down to the support members and flown
the plane. Its too bad the photos didn't show how he fixed the tail.

But I bet he was at pucker factor 10 on the flight back...no way to
see if the patchjob was holding up, and unable to listen for flapping
plastic over the engine noise. I wonder if he flew as low and slow as
possible, or else strapped on a chute and flew as high as possible to
give him more time to get out in case of catastrophic failure.

"Airplane" and "toss up" are two words that don't go well together.
