			<![CDATA[A 35 meter high wind turbine has collapsed in Devon:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/energy/windpower/9837026/Wind-turbine-collapses-in-high-wind.html" target="_self" rel="nofollow">http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/energy/windpower/9837026/Wind-turbine-collapses-in-high-wind.html</a><br /><br />Faulty bolts (my guess)? Reported gusts of 50pmh seem no more than it must have faced over the last 3 years. Again a shame that these things happen and then get blown (excuse the pun) out of proportion. it will be interesting to see what really caused the failure.]]>

			<![CDATA[There have been a few failures of this kind. It does looks like a bolt failure from the photo. Luckily none of the ones I've been involved with are down that way.]]>
