An unfortunate day for pilots and Ercoupes today.  Bob Sukiennicki is
reported to have died, along with his wife, in a crash taking off from
Cameron Park.  Witnesses say the engine was sputtering and the plane
crashed
in the hills nearby the airport.  Little more information available at
this
time.

I met Bob a couple of times at Ercoupe flyin events in N. California.  He
had another plane, which type I forget, that was being repaired, and
bought
his Coupe to have something to fly in the meantime.  Foreign-born, he
always
seemed like a gentleman and a scholar.  He arranged for Coupers to fly in
to
a car show at Cameron Park last Fall, with he and his wife providing
lunch.
Though I didn't know him well, I'll miss him and his Ercoupe.

Ralph
