Group,
I know not all of us are Pitts drivers but the guy at the factory who knows more about Pitts than anybody else is struggling a bit.
Danny Adams, if you don't know him or haven't met, is not only a great guy but has a LOT of knowledge regarding these little airplanes. 20 years ago Stu Horn would send Danny to all the contests and Danny would do a courtesy inspection/tech on your Pitts and fix anything onsite that he could.
Things got slow and Aviat quit sending him. Much to the aerobatic crowds displeasure. They worked it out and he's travelling to some of the contest now.
However, Danny's wife is ill and they could use a hand. Insurance is not going to cover. Curt Richmond set up a go fund me account on their behalf.

If you can find it in your heart and wallet, it's a worthy cause.
Respectfully,
Mark
