Default Blue Skies To Aaron Hogue
Aaron Hogue, the man behind the firearm accessories company was killed today while racing his Jet in the Gold Jet Final at the Reno Air Races. The incident happened by Jet Course Pylon 5 on the way to 6.

Blue Skies Aaron, you'll be missed in many worlds you took part in.

Usually is wake turbulence from leading aircraft in Jet Class, but that has a bobble of the wings first. Probably GLOC in this case. They dive down from Outer 4 through the Valley of Speed and are at the highest speed of the course there. Happened just after the turn around Outer 5 with no response leads me to thinking GLOC.

Sorry to hear that. I used to see Aaron along with Jim Bruhns every year in Atlanta. He will be missed.
