I wish I could quote you and Hank...
Yes, Bill was "low time" in sailplanes, but not stupid. He pushed, but always left generous margins from what I saw. He did quite a few contests as well as Soaring sofiris ( |

Very sad.
Bill was my mail gliding friend from U.S. He were always asking how my wife and newborn was. Also, he was he person who pushed me to show my project in the SSA convention an booked himself as a my first client. Today I've tried to reach him by whatsapp and I saw this post. He was very kind and always inviting to go to his place with my family. I hope his family find peace. |

Yesterday we lost WH. RIP Bill! it is one thing to read of loosing some fellow pilot, it is the other to learn of passing your friend. It's difficult to collect once thoughts. We lost Bill and with it we lost his smile, honesty, readiness to help and share, his sens of humor, unlimited energy, hospitality and great cookouts, his love for Nancy and his kids. Bill knew what the hard work was, and knew how to have a fun time. It was good to fly with him, and be around him. He will be greatly missed. FZ |

Emir, The last time I saw him and we flew in formation together around Blairstown, about two weeks ago, we talked about you and your project : he had in mind to keep improving his Pegase with your idea, you were defintely part of his plan; he told me that day how you guys met online and he had asked you to come present at the SSA convention. Like others have said better here above, he was a great guy, always smiling and moving with a purpose, looking out to the next adventure or project. Bill was always ready to listen and to help others, to welcome them into his home, listen, talk about anything, cook for them or simply give them a ride. Personally I missed his famous weekly beer night last Thursday downtown NYC and I am kicking myself for not going to see him because I got delayed, it got rainy, I got too busy, of course not knowing it would have been the last time but one more time... We have lost a good Friend. Paga |
