RIP Brothers (Sisters?)
Fly free!
BSBD :( Condolences to the families & friends.
Our condolences. You will be missed.
This pilot was well loved by quite a few other dz’s. Skydive Georgia (where he trained), The Gold Coast Skydiver’s where he took his first jump into the seat, and Connecticut Parachutists Inc. He was a great friend, a fun person to jump with, and a pretty doggone good pilot (& instructor). So, BSBD Rodeo. You will be missed.
R.I.P. Fly the friendly eternal skies.
RIP Bryan! He was well liked at Skydive Houston as our pilot for a month.
I’m not sure who the other person was that died, but RIP to him or her.
My thoughts go out to all of the family and friends.
Blue skies. KWB.
