The high-carbon spring steel of the Cessna 180-185 series main landing strut is incredibly strong. A preexisting crack or failure by corrosion is likely.

I agree... This gear has a reputation of taking a beating even when other parts cannot.

Also a lot of salt is used on the roads over here, that stuff does a number on everything whether it's on or off the roads.

This was a fender bender. The comment from manboi was correct. This story was a complete waste of time.

THAT was not a plane crash. You'll know one when you see it.

Agreed.... I would classify it as an Incident and a minor one at that. Certainly not news worthy.

By looking at the pictures, there is no prop or fuselage damage... Was the engine even running! Only a wing tip damage due to gear collapse...

Seeing as one blade is curled forward, it was under power as it hit. Since the other blade shows little damage either direction, there had to be sudden stoppage. More than likely engine mount/firewall damage also. $$$
Pilot can fly again. This is an insurance story.
