tragedy at Salida, Colorado

Stewart Kissel, long-time Colorado pilot, towed
in his Ventus from Salida on Friday and failed to
return as planned. Wreckage on Methodist Peak, just
south of town, was spotted late Saturday afternoon
and a ground search team reached the site Saturday
night. He did not survive.

Stu was an excellent pilot, helped make the operation
at Salida work. It was an honor flying with someone
of that caliber, and he will be greatly missed.
