The owner and pilot of the airplane was a man named Al Goss. He was a fixture at the Reno Air Races for many years. He and his team were always a class act among the T-6 community, and I will miss him greatly. Our teams enjoyed a friendly rivalry for the last 10+ years. Today we lost a friend and a true gentleman.

On a totally different note, I believe his backseater was a FDX captain. Watch for a FCIF.

Oops. Just read the updated news story, with the backseater's name.
