Acording to news report from the paper, there has just been a Hawker Fury accident in Breckenridge, Texas. Good news is no fatalites, description of injuries to pilot Nelson Ezell and passenger Dustin Mayhill ? are as serious, but not life threaening, may be cuts and some broken bones, and they are now in top hospital in Ft, Worth.
I have know Nelson and his family for 33 years. they are the essence of warirds in that area Nelson has a major restoraton shop and also raced many times at Reno with the team for Howard Pardue. and one of the nicest down to earth guys you could meet. His wife Dude, and two boys Chad and Ashley are grown men now and skilled warbird people also.
My prayers are going out to them.
Seems to be engine failure so not makig it to the runway, fortunatley there are some open fields around the airport.
Im having a hard time thinking straight right now, shaken by this report, and trying to write this so it makes sense.
