    Bob Callahan who was a frequent contributor to the Aviator forum passed away yesterday. I posted a short tribute message in the Owners forum, inside his "Garage."

    For those of you who had a chance to meet him in the real world, he was great fun to be around. I will miss his humor dearly at our weekly Cars & Coffee gathering. Godspeed Bob.

    Greg- That is a real shame. Never met him, but he was really funny and knowledgeable. Rest in peace.

    what the heck!?! I absolutely can't believe this. I have been with Bob several times California, Canada, and Texas. He was just on yesterday and posted Saturday.

    OK, I need to PM you.

    I have fond memories of hanging out with Bob in Monterey over a few (ok maybe a lot of) drinks. He was a nice guy with interesting flying stories. He never let me forget the photoshop job I did of the pic with him, Art and Marty Weiner. Except Bob's face was replaced with Jesus...... RIP

    I read his posts whenever I noted one. Did he explain to anyone the story behind his avatar? It looked like Lucille Ball wearing a full beard.
