Charlie -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RV-List: RV-6 ACCIDENT NEAR MONTREAL,QUEBEC Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2005 22:31:24 -0400 From: Bruno Reply-To: rv-list@matronics.com To: rv-list@matronics.com --> RV-List message posted by: Bruno Good evening Gentlemen Early this morning RV-6 C-GAPF crashed in the Richelieu river while doing circuits at the St-Jean Airport (CYJN). The aircraft had been purchased 2 weeks ago from a friend of mine (not the builder) and the new owner was receiving training due to his lack of confidence in his abilities with his new aircraft. In this accident, I loss a good friend of mine, the passenger, Robert Riendeau, a true gentleman and RV builder. Robert, was in the final preparation toward a flight next year in his RV-4. In the mean time, he was flying a KR-1, which he bought a few years ago and totally refurbished. The RV-6 (Mazda Powered) had been very well maintained and had been worked on extensively last winter. From initial reports, the aircraft appeared to have suffered an engine failure and crashed almost strait in the river (most likely stalled). We should know a little more in the next few days. Robert, blue skies my friend..
