A major kick to WBC's cojones

[Capt. Crunch]

Oh man thats horrible. I can't imagine the devastating feeling that must have caused. So glad no one was hurt tho.

Stay strong Charlie, we are all here for ya!

[Aros]

I just came across this thread...Wow I am SO sorry to hear about your losses but damn glad nobody was hurt or worse! If there's anything we can do, just holler!

[Elbee]

We'll my fellow pilots and Squawk friends...

OV10, I have just read about your garage fire and I cannot imagine the physical loss without thanking God you and yours are well. Please accept my thoughts and prayers. Best always, LB

[NoDirt!]

Wow, what can one say except I am truly sorry you are having to go through this. I hope all goes well and everything works out for the best.

[Grossman56]

Got that right Boots, just remember, you're still above ground, never give up!
Stay "Charlie Strong!"

Hello fellow Squawkers........... I need to express first and foremost that I am moved to tears by the outpouring of concern, condolences and general overall best wishes.
I would never have believed that my contributions to this forum had such a positive impact on so many.
For the past four days I've been so busy with things to get done and my phone blowing up from many agencies that I really felt like a one legged man in a butt kicking contest at times.
So this evening my sweetie and I took a break from the grind of trying to account for the losses(40 years of hoarding) and had dinner with my folks to give our minds a rest.
Prior to heading home my younger brother who lives across the road from Dad asked if I had looked at this thread since I first posted(didn't realize that he had followed me on the Squawk).
When I said no.......he suggested that I should relax a moment and check it out.

Out of all the folks that have responded there are 2 that I would like to acknowledge at this time.
Grady, what can I say..............am for loss of words :Crying:other than to thank you for your initiative with the GFM to help someone you know only by name.
Alpha, your words of "stay close" have certainly resonated within me that I have determined that I do need to stay connected on a regular basis with this fabulous forum.
I need to stay connected if nothing more than to give my mind a break from the worries and in the absence of not being able to fly I can still do so vicariously through all your adventures on the "What did you fly today" thread.
Boots was still beating the Bronco drum but I am the drum major and I need to lead that charge.:Cool:
So now that my Bronco has met it's expiration date (and many others :Angry:) I do fully expect to be the first one to try out the new FlightLine :ov10 ;)
Again, thank you everybody for the positive feelings :)

Hey no problem I consider you as a good friend and just want to help out a fellow hobbyist in need!

[Mad Baron]

Its great to know that the folks here on the Squawk and Motion are always ready to help.:Cool:

[F106DeltaDart]

Sorry about your loss Charlie. I hope that things go quickly with the insurance company and you can start trying to rebuild. Glad that it stayed contained and that you and your family are safe.

[Loneflier]

Charlie,

I am so sorry to read about your loss. I haven't been on Squawk regularly lately, but I am always interested in your posts and what you are up to. My family and I will be keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers.

[seaviper]

Man I am sorry to see that Charlie. Glad you all are safe. You'll be back flying in no time...

[mr.frankenjet]

sorry for your loss, some things take so much work and hold such value to us. Glad the most important things- you and your family- are ok, new planes will come, hang in there

[OV10]

Cripes, I'm so sorry to see that, brother. I'm glad no one was hurt. When the time comes, ping me and we'll get you back with a little somethin' to restart. Stay close to the Squawk and please don't go far! Without you I have no one to bang the Bronco drum.
