Wow. The guy makes a mistake. Then goes on to become a "U.S. National Advanced Aerobatics champion". People who know him said, "He was a good friend," , "He would make you smile. He was the nicest guy to be around." He's a pilot 20 years and skywrites, "God loves you" Jesus loves you" etc at his own expense. Then finally this guy dies at the end of 9-L at North Perry and that's all you can say? Then in my opinion, you Sir, must be a dick.FLGator911 said:I found it kind of funny that they mentioned in the article how he "turned his life around" after getting caught smuggling 900 POUNDS of marijuana into the U.S. in the early 80's. Why is it that these religious fanatics usually have a, shall we say, "checkered past", usually involving drugs/alcohol, or both?

If you don't know the answer to your question above, then your not just a dick, but also a dumb dick.
I lived in S. Florida until earlier this year and I remember those skywritings. Never met the man, but I for one, was touched once or twice over the years by his words in the sky.
I salute him. He'll be missed.
