I knew both guys in the 150

. I flew with one of them for maybe 15 hours. He was a super nice and humble guy. Great pilot, 19 years old who was finishing his second year in college and working at the same time as an exterminator. Hard working kid. Wanted to fly for CHP then go to the airlines.

I didn't even fly today because I'm so upset. I still don't know when the funeral is going to be but will find out soon.

Oddly enough the Cessna 172 was from a school out of Fullerton where both of the guys that were in the 150 from Corona got their PP/IFR. I flew that very 172 with the young pilot involved.

My friends RIP.
