Very Very sad indeed, we can only wish him,

A perfect last take off, a full power climb,
no fuel load required for his last flight in time,
Pull the nose skyward and head for the clouds,
there's no VOR bearings when you're heavenly bound.

RIP Johnny

Very sad and far too young to have had his life taken away.

My condolences to the family also.
