Skip Stewart flew today, and Shockwave ran as well. It was a somber moment in my heart when I heard only 1 aerobatic bipe out there with Shockwave....... Skip was pouring it on!!! Good for him!!!

And yes, truly tragic for this week in aviation.

I was wondering how Skip was going to do today. He ripped up a low show yesterday. Good to hear he nailed it again. I'm sure we all know that's how he would've wanted it.

Guys Im going to make a real effort to get that photo removed, I knew Jim on a first name basis and its the least I could do, if you agree the photo isnt right please email me at phrydaddy@insightbb.com
Please keep it short, after a few days Ill send all emails to the Dayton News sight that has posted the pict of Jims wife and see if they have any dignity, if they do theyll remove it. Photographers like that are the sole reason Jimmy Doolittle quit flying Gee Bee's, after flying his last race he learned that the press was hovering over his wife to get the picture of her face should he wreck the GeeBee. After seeing that he stepped away from air racing for good. To gain from someones personal loss is SICK.

Personally I feel the same way about the pictures and video on this site. The plane is engulfed in flames and we all know Jim's still inside. I just don't see the reason for the video clip and pictures of the accident to remain on here.
