Erica Simpson

[SE-30]

I was devastated to hear that Erica was killed today in Reno. Did anybody hear what happened? I've flown with her and she will be sorely missed.

Very sad indeed. God Bless (sadly, it seems like I've been saying that way to much lately).

She will be very missed here. Never flew with her but we crossed paths many times on tour. A true asset to us. An eyewitness account statement from the newspaper said "a crew member of a T6 Class plane of Denver, witnessed the fatal crash. “It looked like she was she was going to do a roll and the wings broke off,” Jones said. “It just came apart.”

She and her family will be in our prayers. Everyone fly safe.

God Bless! I have known Erica for a long time and I still can't believe she is no longer with us.

No matter how many we lose, it doesn't get any easier.

I am put at ease only by the fact that she was doing what her passion drove her to. We should all be as fortunate when our time comes.

My heartfelt condolences to her family and other loved ones. She is a sweetheart and will be sorely missed at CS.

With this, I lift a glass. Godspeed.
