I was an instructor there when we had the midair. I hope this works out better than I think it will.

Very sad, but looks like it didn't. I was in P'cola on Tueasday and the base ops guys were trying to track down the T-39 since it was already overdue at that point. I was told that the pilot (contract) was one of the more experienced ones, an ex A-7 driver I think. Very sad.

They released the names. I flew with Dave many times and he was one of the best. The world is truly a lesser place now.

I hate it when this crap happens. Incredibly sad... my thoughts go out to the families.

We've known others, but none of the folks on this crew. Our prayers to the families.
