Awww, sorry to see that.  Several years ago I'd considered flying some Jet Speed, and Bill was very helpful with suggestions.  While I never did follow up (probably never will) I will always remember his patient and kind suggestions.

This was quite a shock, although Bill seemed to be having some problems last time I saw him - almost two years ago. This was posted on the NCCL club's page eight hours ago by Sherry (Capinjola) Aybar:

With sadness, Bill Capinjola passed away last night in his sleep, services are not complete at this time.


"Jet Bill" will be missed. He also flew some stunt on occasion.

Man I am sad to hear that! Bill came down to visit when I lived in Columbus on several occassions. I always assumed we would hang out again sometime down the road. My condolences go out to his son and family members.
