I knew Terry for many years and flew with him in this aircraft on several occasions.
He was a careful and prudent pilot, though not 'overlycautious'. he flew the aircraft often after getting it in the air and was serious about learning to fly it correctly. He was a good planner and not a risk taker, the aircraft was well constructed and nicely finished.
I am surprised, and saddened, of course. They were part of a small crew that really enjoy putting some air under the wings on fly aways, and a larger social crew at YLTV. Their loss is one that is being felt strongly.
