Re: Freddy Cabanas, Sad news
Freddy was just, plain and simple.. a friggin HOOT!
When I was working with Steve and Mary a bunch of years ago, we had dinner with a bunch of folks at Sun n Fun.. one of whom was Freddy... Oh crap, if you ever saw his photo album!
There was an airshow performer crowd at the restaurant that night, we had em ready to get their checks and move to safer ground that night!
Really Really sad, sad news...

Re: Freddy Cabanas, Sad news
My Condolences to his family and friends. He was always fun to chat with at the races, One year when he was racing #103 the Conch Fury we took some black tape and changed the CRAF on the side to CRAP they didn't notice for about half the day and I think Freddy found it even funnier than we did.

Ah so---- your the cats that did that!! We were pitted right next to them and we got blamed for it. Thought it was funnier than hell. Freddy was a funny guy and always had a story to tell about something. Thoughts and prayer to his family. Very sad.

Re: Freddy Cabanas, Sad news
Freddy was a genuine guy... I asked him to call my daughter to say happy birthday for her 16th last year. He called me a day or two later to tell me he had purchased a few flight lessons for her. When told that was unnecessary, he simply stated it was something he wanted to do for her. That's just the kind of guy he was. I'll miss him terribly.

Re: Freddy Cabanas, Sad news
WHAT A COOL GUY! I REMEMBER WHEN MADMAN-MARK, BROUGHT
HIS DAUGHTER TO THE AEROBATIC CO. FOR FLYING LESSONS THAT
FREDDY BOUGHT. HE WAS AN INCREDIBLE AVIATOR THROUGH AND THROUGH. A REAL GENTLEMAN WHO ALWAYS HAD TIME FOR YOU.
I FIND HIS LOSS A BIT MORE THAN SHOCKING CONSIDERING HIS SKILLS.FROM THE CONCH SEAFURY TO AMERICAN BEAUTY, TO THE PITTS HE HAD 5000 HOURS IN FROM A GRASS STRIP IN FL.
FREDDY WILL BE MISSED.
SO HERE'S A SHOT, AND A CHEER, AND A "WISH YOU WERE HERE".
AND A VICTORY ROLL IN OUR DECATHALON ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON
AT STEAD TO REMEMBER FRED
