Steve said:I'm sure you all remember last Memorial Day Weekend when the CAF's Red- Tail mustang made a forced off-field landing, and the pilot, Don Hinz, later passed away from injuries received. I've just learned that one of the two pilots killed in the mid-air with the F/A 18's in Iraq was none other than Don's son Kelly.
Well, that just really sucks.

Touchdown! Greaser!

It sure does. I've met Don a couple times and know Kurt, another of his kids pretty well (he's a fellow competition waterskier). Both Don and Kurt were/are some of the nicest people you could meet. Life just isn't fair.
