    Most of his recent tweets looks like he's flying that plane solo. One of the best.

    I remember watching his first game on TV. Was pitching a no hitter going into the 9th if I remember correctly.

    Sad day indeed.

    Unbelievable. Only played in philly for a few years but he was big time. No hitter in the playoffs. Perfect game. Cy Young winner. Damn it.

    One look at this and anyone whose been out to sea knows
    you can't take this over the ocean. You don't even need
    a pilots license. It's a light craft for non-pilots.

    Here he is talking about getting it.


    Rest in Peace.

    Yup. Unforgettable player. I'm a Yankees fan and he was always tough as a Blue Jay too

    Cory Lidle. Seems its planes or boats most of the time, a few cars mixed in there.

    Those little planes always crash.. Look how many times Harrison Ford got lucky.... Cessna's aren't bullet proof that's for sure.. Big gust of wind and those little airplanes can get grounded in a hurry... I don't trust them mechanically either... Jet planes or bust I say...
