Apparently Jim has suddenly passed away today.
Please keep Lovada in your thoughts and prayers in this extremely difficult time.

I believe I saw Jim on an episode of aviators. It was the one that featured Sun and Fun.

Seemed like such a nice mine.

Re: Jim Poel - Glenn Curtiss Accident

Yes, that was Jim, and your assessment is absolutely correct.....Jim was the quintessential gentleman and a superb aviator. He was a fixture in the SeaBee community, and a regular at Sun N Fun.

Aviation has lost a great one, and he will be missed.

Blue Skys, Jim....
