Dan, we are all praying for you and your recovery. Sorry to hear about your bird but your health and life are so much more valuable to us. Keep your spirit up and get well.
N41768 and I wont be making it to KMVN this year due to bad weather on this end and requirement that I be here on Sunday. I sure hope that all of you will have a good time and learn a lot. Make sure to take lots of pictures for us homebound boys and girls to enjoy! Missing all of you and your company.

Vernon. Dan Freeman has some good cuts and scrapes on his head, arms and feet, but should pull through. He is currently at a local hospital being treated for his injuries. I almost had the crash in pictures as I was walking out of the terminal to shoot the first KR arrival as he touched down and bounced back up into the air. A gust of wind pushed him further up into the air. He tried to correct and get the nose down when the gust subsided and he fell 30+ feet to the ground. He hit with the nose down and the right wing down. The plane slid the length of the taxiway, about 130 ft. The right wing folded under the fuselage. The engine and instrument were broken off and swung back along the fuselage side. Will give an update on Dan's condition once I hear something.
