12 yr old Girl who flew atlantic dead aged 26

Vicki Van Meter who flew a Cessna 210 across the atlantic in the early or mid nineties, at the age of 12 has died at the age of 26. Suicide.
Quite a remarkable feat for a 12 year old and a sad and premature end to her life.

Terribly sad, seems she was a very talented young person. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vicki_Van_Meter


Sincere condolences to family and friends
