I did the same thing when I heard. I looked up past emails from him. I got the
same Christmas card.
On the door, I agree. I regularly help people into RV-10s. My main instruction
is, be anal about the doors. If you get complaciente about them, thats when you
will have problems. I stress the 4-5 point pre-takeoff check.
1. Make sure the button is popped out.
2. Make sure the handle wont rotate
3. Push on the front to verify it is pinned.
4. Push on the back to verify it is pinned.
5. Verify strap is on handle, for those who have straps and/or verify the door
latch LED is off.
Its so sad to lose another RV-10er who was part of the early RV-10 journey with
so many of us.

Very sad news!
Looked up past emails from Pascal, when he was flying from SoCal to Naples,
Florida where we wintered. He was always very thankful for information on
flying destinations. He planned to stay with us in KC but it was north of
course.
We hope the best for his family and friends.
(Years ago, we had an rv door pop-- any incidence is a time to remember
vigilance. Please take care RV community. We are a family.
Does not diminish our heartfelt shock at this loss or empathy for the
family.
Peace in the sorrow. Hold those great memories of Pascal.
