Well Done... I have seen both pilots perform at many airshows, and was deeply saddened to learn of their deaths at Moose Jaw last week.

Two gifted and talented pilots in the airshow community will be greatly missed.

Very nice tribute, unfortunately I never got to see either one of them fly.
Beautiful edit Jared.

Thanks guys.....

I've seen them both fly, however I'm definately more accustomed to seeing Franklin as he was pretty much an every year gig at the local show... Wink

I have been blessed to see Younkin fly the learjet at two different airshows, definately quite a thrill! Wink

Very nice...

I've seen a lot of tributes popping up these last few days, both online and off...
A very close friend of mine who was the lead medic on duty that day produced a very nice video for the Younkin and Franklin families.
