I lost a good friend today

[jjmaccrimmon]

One of my former co-workers back in Southern California died in an F-22 crash just outside Edwards AFB, CA. Dave Cooley was one of the best pilots I knew and certainly one of the sharpest. He was one of the Lockheed Test Pilots when I worked on the F-117 program and transistioned to the F-22 program just before I was fired.

Hugs; sorry to read about your friend, news like that is always hard, and sorry I missed you online this evening.

I'm so sorry, jj. It seems the world has become a terribly unsafe place! (Probably always was, I was just too self-involved or in denial to notice.)
