Unhappy RV-6 Down-Fatal
A RV-6 crashed today in SE NC. Apparently 1 fatality. Video on http://www.wral.com/news/news_briefs/story/6141016/

No tail number visible but tail paint scheme visible. The weather was rainy.

My heart felt sympathy goes out to the family.....so sad.

Default Has anyone heard anymore about this crash?
Perhaps some of the Chicago area guys/gals knew the pilot. He was reportedly Kenneth R. Hetzel, 63, of Yorkville, Ill.

Here are two other links to articles but they really don't give any details.
