Default Another sad day - 1-26 champ Bob Von Hellens has sailed into the sunset

My condolences to the family, especially his daughter and crew chief Robin. I had a few happy times at Moriarty with them and always thought of Bob as one of the gentlemen of the sport. His immaculate restorations of several 1-26 gliders impressed me greatly. Fly (not rest) in Peace.
