Plane & Pilot Magazine - Flight I'll Never Forget: The Golden Hour - PlaneAndPilotMag.com
In 2007, my team, Aerophile Air Racing, returned from a very difficult trip to the Reno Air Races. Prior to the races, we had worked closely with five-time champion Gary Hubler to prepare Carbon Slipper, and his father, Bill Hubler, was also on our crew. Gary assembled our engine himself, as we were all busy with the never-ending list of speed modifications. Things were looking promising when—to our horror—Gary was involved in a midair accident. Because we were all so close to him, I decided to withdraw our team from the rest of the race, knowing we could no longer safely conduct the business of air racing. I wasn't sure what the future would hold for us, but I knew how hard everyone had worked to put Carbon Slipper within reach of the gold. At this time, when we all needed something to lift our hearts, I wanted to find a way to thank everyone, commemorate our success and honor Gary. ...
