Very sad news. Just found this report here: - http://www.kmbc.com/article/two-killed- ... n/10313990 I assume it was 'Baby Duck' he and his passenger were flying? Cheers Paul |

Quite a few articles mentioning it was Baby Duck he was flying in the show yesterday and had departed the airport at 10 this morning. |

He wasn't just *one* of the best, he was THE best. He was an outstanding pilot, and an even better person- incredibly knowledgeable, gracious and funny, always willing to share his views and expertise. Our world is significantly darker today without him in it. This really hurts. Lynn |

I think he's higher off the ground with the gear down in that takeoff picture than he was on his low passes! I was able to see his routine in Baby Duck and Moonbeam several times, his has to be the most memorable for me out of all the Mustang displays I've seen. |

A great guy who will be very deeply missed. Also condolences to the family and friends of the second victim. |
