Just read that on the net Tom! Great pilot with years of aerobatic experience! Well liked throughout the flying group. I would like to know what happened to cause this. He was known to never make mistakes, the years of his flying proved this many times. He was also a very nice man and treated everyone as an equal. He will be missed by many. :blue: PJ
 
I wonder if a health problem cause him to keep coming down inverted, or aircraft malfunction? I'm sure a lot of people in the business want to know. Hopefully the NTSB will find out. PJ
 
Don, he was closer to the ground inverted than I've ever seen. Also it was a straight line gradual decent to the ground. Odd, very odd! This is why I am wondering about some health issue. Might never know the true reason. PJ
