[CaravanMan]

Today I lost a great friend whom was a safe and very professional pilot. He was also a FI member, Hawk16e. We spent many years as room mates and friends in YIP, we lived twenty-five minutes from each other back home in Ohio. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and children. The thoughts of the hundreds of hours we talked together one thing is for sure; he is a devote father and husband that loved his children and a devote christian. He will be missed by everyones lives he touched, at work and at home.

Very sorry for the loss of your friend, Buckeye. We'll be praying for all those who know and knew him, and will be praying for the FO.

 

[Hocus Focus]

The FO was a very good friend of mines his family says that he is stable but has suffered many injuries. Our thought and prayers are with both families in this tragic accident.

LM will be missed.

CJ we are all praying for you.

 

[Bob_Sacamano]

I just got the email. I flew skydivers years ago with him. What a great person. Always eager to help the new guys.

 

[Spencer]

Very sorry to here of the crash. I didn't know the First Officer but I flew many trips with the Captain. Really nice person and very much a dedicated family man. My heart goes out to both families. The Captain will be greatly missed.
