Put my stuff in with ASTAR, got a canned email from the company. Always kind of interested in DHL, knew the Skipper, he always talked it up.

I spent two years at DHL, and spent many nights over the north atlantic with the Skipper. Based on his reputation, I was dreading flying with him. He turned out to be one of the nicest guys I've ever worked with. Eccentric as hell, but a heart of gold. I have the honor of being dubbed an"honorary bridge commander" by him. The company is ok. They have a penchant for creating lots of busy work to do enroute, but I guess it's to keep everybody from sleeping all the way. If you've never flown nights, it is a real b*tch on your body, and the effects are cumulative, so you don't even realize how bad it's trashing you. Pick your poison, as I'm living the Chapter 11 dream now. To quote the Skipper: "So it is written, so let it be done."

I met the Skipper through our little flying club in Scappoose. He would come in and intimidate the hell out of you as a 600 hour flight instructor. I then bit the bullet, and called him for a tailwheel endorsement. It was the best training I ever had.

He would then just stop in and say Hi and check out what was happening in GA. One Christmas I stopped to the office, and there on my desk was a little package that just said To:Brett, From: Skipper Santahorn. I still treasure that book. As I got into my first freight job (he talked me into flying Beech 18's) he always would take time, and seemed truly interested in my career.
When my father called and told me he had passed, it was truly a sad day. My brother witnessed the accident. He totally changed my career path (for better or worse).
He is greatly missed.

Yeah. I flew with Skipper a lot in the 727. When he died, the company asked for everyone to not call in sick for the funeral. It's a good thing, because we were all thinking about doing it. LOL We sent a delegation of our guys to it. It was a tough blow. We named one of the Airbuses after him.
