Lovada...devestating news. We have all lost a great one. Jim was always a delight to everyone that flew with him. We always knew we would make it home safely and would always have a good time too! My deepest sympathy.

Jim was great guy and friend. I came to know Jim through restoration projects at the museum. He was always cheerful, helpful and pleasant. I can truly say that my life is better because of knowing Jim.
We'll all miss him.

Jim flew as my copilot several times while at American Airlines. I was pleasantly surprised to see his story in the February 2011issue of Flight Journal [page 21]and wanted to make sure that this announcement of Jim's death was made known to you and your staff.
Another great birdman flown west!
Sincerely,
Ed Davidson

Lovada, My memories of you and Jim is of two people who loved each other and loved flying. There were a lot of good days; remember them.
There are good ships and there are wood ships,
the ships that sail the sea.
But the best ships are friendships,
and may they always be
