I don't know how many of you knew Jack Butler. He built/owned three Pitts Specials, and he and Bob Barney built an SX300 that Jack flew to the magnetic north pole 18 years ago. Jack was very influential in aerobatics in Utah for many years.
 
Jack passed away November 13, at the age of 88. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

Danny,
 
I wonder if we have any photo's of Jack in the archive photo's I received from Mike Cosman.  Do you recall ever seeing any?  It's too bad we haven't seen many of the old time chapter members come to our events.  Besides Alan Hyde and Cory Bagley...who's still alive?

Thanks,
