God speed.
Side note, I always hate when people say they "died doing what they loved". Unless you love shitting yourself in inconceivable terror, nobody dies doing what they love.

No matter how experienced you are, sometimes fate is out hunting you.
I have no idea what happened, but I’ve caught myself being complacent on occasion.
Maybe it was mechanical, maybe it was a medical, maybe it was the old bush mantra of overloading the shit out if it. The notoriety of the victim is sure to catch the attention of the NTSB and worthy of their scrutiny.
On a side note: who the fuck proofreads these articles before publishing them? It’s fraught with errors.

His TV show was one of the aviation shows I actually liked.
Fate is the hunter indeed.

What tragic news, Mr. Tweeto seemed like the real deal and a very likeable guy.

That’s just something family and friends say when they’re scratching for any part of a tragedy that isn’t just total shit. A distraction while they pick up the remaining pieces of their own lives and I can’t fault them for it.
