Unhappy FDX - Private plane crash

I am hearing that this was another one of our pilots here at FDX. Cannot confirm as through a 3rd party.

God Bless

A rare combination of talent and humility. He was an exceptionally gifted pilot, the best kind of instructor you could hope to have, generous to a fault and a truly great guy to hang with. My prayers are with his family. Fair winds, my friend.

I met said pilot through a mutual FDX friend in ANC in Oct. It was a pleasure to drink and dine with him that day...RIP.

I was told in confidence by my friend and asked not to release info since it was unsure if all required family have been notified. Sorry.

A pilot's pilot, a consummate professional, a great guy to just hang around with, and a great friend. He will truly be missed. Please pray for him, and his family.
