Got several messages this morning that Freddy Cabanas from Key West died.
No details yet but he was in Cozumel probably doing an airshow?
He wasn't an RV guy but he flew EVERYTHING! I flew with him many times and even took some aerobatic instruction from him.
He was the definition of "a character" in a town where that means something!
I flew in every Pitts he's owned in the last 15 plus years except the last one.
He was made the "General" of the Conch Republic Air Force by the Mayor when Key West seceeded.
No way to put into words what a loss this is.
