![]() "private" wrote in message news:GGgce.1150342$Xk.1123548@pd7tw3no... My comments were intended to stimulate thought regarding the consequences of poor decision making that this week has resulted in two fatalities. I have a funeral to attend and I do not know what to say to the mother who has now lost both her champion pilot husband and her champion pilot only son. Dudley, I would appreciate your guidance and wisdom as I am sure you have been in my position too many times. Yes, I have unfortunately been in this position more than I care to remember in my career. Counting our friends on the service jet aerobatic teams, my wife and I can count 32 people I either flew with, worked with, or knew professionally in our community who have been lost to fatal accidents involving aerobatics and low altitude demonstration flying. I believe I know how you must feel being faced with such a sad event. It would be presumptuous of me to even attempt to advise you on the best way to deal with it as I can't imagine a more personal thing than what you are about to do. From the way you write however, I also believe you will do the right thing. Please accept my sincere best wishes and condolences for what most certainly will be a most trying experience.
