Jim & "The Bulldog" were my son's FAVORITE Performers (as well as ours)...We attended the Goshen,IN FreedomFest Every year (9 years straight) Also the Elkhart,IN air show every year... My oldest son is now 13yrs & my youngest is 6yrs old. We love you Jim Leroy !!! You and your Bulldog are now and always will be our FAVORITE Performers of all time...

Jim was my aerobatic flight instructor, we flew, we sweat, we laughed and most of all I learned to be a better pilot and a better man.

He will be missed... Blue skies buddy and godspeed.
