I was lucky enough to meet Udo when I purchased his first built SuperHP18.
Indeed a gentleman with a very fine intellect - I was always hoping he
would get around to producing his own 15m racer to take on the German
machines, which he told me about when I first met him.
I am sure Mike G (the 2nd owner of the Super HP18) would join me in
thanking Udo for the many enjoyable hours spent flying Udo's creation in
the Candian Rockies.
I am sure Udo will be kept busy 'reprofiling' a few of those angels
wings!!!!!

It is with a heavy heart that I have to report that Udo Rumpf passed
away last night. He had been battling cancer for the last few years
and fought hard to beat it. Unfortunately, various treatments were not
successful. I will let you know about funeral arrangements in the next
day or so.

A wonderful gentleman has left us.

Blue Skies to you Udo. I never met the man, but corresponded with him
via e-mail on some design ideas and such. I always enjoyed reading
about his homebuilding projects.
