J'ai envoyé le mot suivant à monsieur Cook via le lien prévu sur le site de Vintage Wings. Monsieur O'Malley aux communications m'a confirmé qu'il allait lui faire parvenir... Niiice !
Dear Howard,
We have met a few times before. We spoke together at both the Classic Air Rallye and Vintage Wings' Open House events where I flew in with my ol' C-140. I even had the immense privilege to park it right next to Vintage Wings aircraft ! Our conversations were brief but truly enjoyable and I learned a lot from you in a very short time !
I learned of your accident like everybody else, with dismay and incredulity. It is a sobering reminder that flying our classic old airplanes has a built-in risk factor that we learn to mitigate, but that never totally goes away.
I was releived to read on Vintage Wings web site that although you were seriously injured, your recovery is already underway. It will surely not be easy but know that the thoughts and prayers of a great many of us who had the pleasure of talking with you, even if briefly, are with you, your family and your friends in these hard times.
Rest, take it easy and we shall see you again around Vintage Wings magnificient aircraft, commenting the show like no one else. I am looking forward to walk to you again, shake your hand and share our passion of flying.

Félicitations Michel pour ce bon mot à l'attention du pilote, je suis certain qu'il l'aura grandement apprécié =:) C'est surement très réconfortant pour lui de savoir que les gens pensent à lui et l'aide moralement à passer au travers de cette épreuve.
