It is always a gut wrenching thing when we loose one of our own.
 
There  but by the grace of God go I..
 
This game we play at is terribly unforgiving of any oversight.
 
On Saturday we lost two of our own community here in Portland.

Sorry to report that we lost a fine friend and fellow rotor-head yesterday.

  Mike Wills was doing what he loved (flying, this time in a glider) when apparently he ran out of thermal lift and couldn't find more before having to make an off field landing.  Very few facts in yet but sounds like a wing clipped a tree before he went in.  He will be missed.
