Default RV-8 Accident

Anyone here know Will Ramsey? I think he was originally from Fort Worth, Texas. His RV-8 crashed in fog in Northern Indiana this past weekend. Unfortunately, Will did not survive.

I remember his posts on the Matronics list back in 2001/2002 but hadn't seen much since then. He was staying near Terre Haute, IN at Sky King while he worked at the Federal nerve gas storage facility just north of there.

Doug had a note of remembrance on his web site today about Wil Ramsey.
