Could weather have been a factor today? I'm sure it was far from calm winds. Sure is breezy up here in AR.

No. It was a mechanical malfunction.

He apparently had replaced a couple of parts and was taking it up for a test flight.
A guy who was shot down twice in Vietnam and survived only for it to end like this. Very sad.

Once was in a plane and once was in a helicopter from what I'm told, so he may have not been a pilot in the war, but shot down during transport. I'm getting this from my girl who works in the industry. Manuel his her biggest client and she knew him well.
