Really nice, genuine guy that always had a smile on his face. A toast, my friend.

This one hits particularly close to home.  Ron Panting did all of my PPL instruction back in 99, including soloing me and recommending me for my check ride.  I also worked with him in OGV around that time.  Good pilot and a really nice guy.  I really hate this part of the business.

 

Godspeed, fellas.

Toast to the man.
