I got the most tragic news today

Post by airboatr »

My flight instructor was killed in his express experimental landing in berry key bahamas

I just can't believe it.... :(( some reports of wing seperation ... we are waiting for more info

his poor wife ... kids .... ... havn't much to go on .. She doesn't have a passport so no one has yet ID'd Larry

Oh .. what a great loss this is for our flying community.
