Everyone,
Frank did pass away over the weekend. He had struggled with recovery after he was hit by a car and received some serious injuries. Per his wishes, we really did not talk about it openly. Rich is right that he was certainly known for his Stars and Bars paint schemes, he did many. Wayne should be happy to know that I have his LA Heat in my basement from when he was downsizing his fleet. I had hoped that I would be able to get a full flight in with it for him one day, but I missed that opportunity but we did get a number of attempts to get it when it was in his fleet. Perhaps he will be watching when I get that flight in.
For reference, Frank was from Detroit but flew with the crew in the greater Flint area. He will be missed for sure.
John
