Anyone going? Anyone there? PIREPs, please?

It's a bad year out there.. I just got around to checking belated voice
mails and my good friend was out there and saw one of the jets auger in.
There's a handful of L-39's on my field here, but I dont think any of
them race/pace (anymore).

2 fatals in 3 days.

I hope this is the end of the bad news.

Unfortunately not... Gary Hubler of Caldwell Idaho died when his
Formula 1 was involved in a collision today:

Hubler field is a private airport just north of the Caldwell airport.
He has been a big figure in Idaho aviation in recent years. I saw him
testing his racer at the Caldwell airport earlier this summer.

Bummer...
