I noticed one of the UPS pilots killed this week. One was Captain Dana Diamond. Just wondering if that was the Captain Dana who used to be on here. I remember him being a pilot.

I think Capt had some type of stroke and had to retire from the Flight... have not seen him on here for a few months..

Capt Dana, are you anywhere near a Flight Safety or SimuFlight training facility?

They are often looking for people with your experience to run the simulators.

If you are a CFI, hold ground school in your area or start an aviation program in high schools or colleges.

Glad it wasn’t you but what a coincidence that pilot having the same name and rank.
