Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | RIP Jeff A friend of ours died in a plane crash on Friday here in AZ. He loved to fly so much - it was his passion. It was while he was flying his beloved WWII P51 Mustang that something went wrong; we don't yet know what caused the crash. Please send some good thoughts to his loved ones, especially his kids. RIP sweet man - hope you're flying high above the clouds! Names released of passenger, pilot killed in AZ plane crash - CBS 5 - KPHO

Pilots all seem to learn about those flying brothers that are lost.....my brother will surely hear of his accident.....when these flying "band of brothers" learn of one they have lost, they all say a silent acknowledgement and a tip of their hat, to the flyer that has gone on..... What was the name of his beloved P51? That will be another tribute that will be noted, probably by the ......I think it is called the Confederate Pilots Assoc....or something like that....we will watch for any salutes/notifications/etc and I will let you know.....again, I am terribly sorry for the loss of this man, your family friend..... | |

| Ann, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. Rest in peace, Jeff. Sending his family good thoughts, wishes for comfort. My dad also has a passion for WWII planes and the P51 is one of his favorites, although he isn't a pilot like Jeff. Very sad.

| I'm very sorry to hear this and sorry for your loss Ann. It always breaks my heart to hear someone dying doing something that they loved so much. Bittersweet, how what they loved to do is what did them in. But I guess like the saying goes, "He died doing what he loved".

| I'm so sorry Ann. But like others have said, at least Jeff died doing something he loved. I imagine he must have really enjoyed flying that P-51. Condolences.
