**Greenline** · 11-07-17, 03:58 PM

Press conference bumped to 4:30 now....yikes

**Greenline** · 11-07-17, 04:01 PM

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

**Kermit** · 11-07-17, 04:01 PM

Oh wow.

**Cuse0323** · 11-07-17, 04:03 PM

Damn, that sucks. Has to be him.

**Snowball** · 11-07-17, 04:07 PM

**Bluehorseshoe** · 11-07-17, 04:16 PM

**Auto Donk** · 11-07-17, 04:16 PM

Sounds like they get paid too much.

**jtoler** · 11-07-17, 04:19 PM

Dang, I hate flying myself, rip.

**slambam** · 11-07-17, 04:21 PM

Tweeted a week ago that he loves flying low over the water. Unreal. RIP Roy

Roberto Clemente.....Thurman Munson.....Who was the pitcher from the Yankees who crashed into a building?

**xraygord** · 11-07-17, 04:21 PM

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

Sad day indeed.

**t-wizzle** · 11-07-17, 04:26 PM

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.

**jjgold** · 11-07-17, 04:26 PM

Small planes deadly

**Snowball** · 11-07-17, 04:26 PM

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.

Icon A5, An Airplane For Non-Pilots, Hits Turbulence After Fast Start

https://www.forbes.com/sites/christinenegroni/2016/05/09/icon-an-airplane-for-non-pilots-hits-some-turbulence-after-fast-start/

Former fighter pilot Kirk Hawkins has gotten strong pre-orders for his stylish two-seater that takes off on land or water, looks like a jet ski, and takes just a few weeks to learn to fly. But his California start-up is getting pushback over its aggressive contract terms to reduce its risk of customer lawsuits.

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.

**Auto Donk** · 11-07-17, 04:50 PM

damn plane was apparently the equivalent of these:

kit car type stuff......

dangerous.....

**JIBBBY** · 11-07-17, 04:57 PM

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...
