Hey All,

Was this just missed here at SOH? I was following it pretty closely this week as I favor bush flying especially in Montana.

Sparky was the author of the Mountain Flying Bible... He was killed a couple of days ago in a plane crash... in the mountains.

Hey All,

Sorry that Yahoo site had a photo of his wrecked 180. It's probably still there somewhere.

Apparently not many simmers have ever heard about Sparky Imeson..... sad !
