Default Sad to report:

For those of you who have not heard: Wiley Carlton, a well known and highly respected tow pilot has been killed in a motor vehicle accident in the Outer Banks of the Carolinas. Wiley had been working towing hang gliders at the time but had towed extensively at Seminole Lake Glider Port in Clermont, Florida for years.

Wiley towed me on my first glider lesson, my first solo and my commercial check ride. He was rock solid, dependable, highly skilled and he will be sorely missed.

Fly on Wiley.

Walt
