Default Very Moving video

There is a very moving video at http://www.airventurecup.com/main.html. Click on the Gallery/Video button
then at the next display click on the Pullano Videos button
and at the next display click on Jay Blum Memorial.

He was entered in the Airventure Cup and the U.S. Air Race National Air Races this year but he died in a formation practice accident. I did not know him but he was obviously well liked as a sportsman pilot. Like I said, know him or not this is a very, very, well done and moving memorial.

thanks for posting that. Jay was a member of my EAA chapter and was slated to fly chase on the first flight of my RV6. He ran the chapter Young Eagles program and was very enthusiastic about promoting GA to kids. A great loss to the community.
