My condolences to Judy and the Savader Family.

Ed taught me to fly nearly 20 years ago. He was my mentor and truly my inspiration in the aviation community. I'm still an active pilot and I share my experiences with Ed on a daily basis. They broke the mold when they made Ed. He was truly one of kind. So many great memories flying with Ed. He helped shape my career in aviation and the valuable life lessons he taught me helped make me into the man I am today. He will be missed. RIP Ed Savader. Harumph! N1469X/N5315L

To the Savader family:
I'm so saddened to just learn of Ed's passing. As a six foot tall 16 year old, eager to learn all there was to learn about flying, Ed in his compact form was still larger than life. I have so many fond memories of hours spent in Alpha, discusing our pre and post flight lessons using the wing as a desk. Who could forget N20861, N1469X,757GJ (GJ for Gorgeous Judy, or N5315L? How about draining the "water" out of the tail?
Now a 43 year old father of two, I can thank Eddie when I look in the right seat and see my 13 year old son taking it all in, soon to be a six foot tall 16 year old eager to take the wheel solo. Thanks to Ed's family for sharing him with all of us at FRG for so many years. Instead of a NOMAD, I'd prefer LEGEND.

Dear Ed,

I am truly saddened today as I learn of your passing. I have so many fond memories of as I grew up.
I want to thank you for giving me my start as an aviator. It's now Captain Michael Klarman B767 for Delta Airlines. I hope I can always live up to your expectations .
I will truly miss you. Hope you and my Dad are flying together
again in N20861.
Sincerely Michael D Klarman.....

Ed, very sorry I didn't get the chance to say good bye after spending days and years in the Apha -Area learning to fly with you.
Still got the lumps behind my head from your heavy hands. I think you would be proud of me now with all the jet aircraft I fly.
Forever thinking f you.... Your Friend Neil Azar

'Flying Eddie' was a loved & treasured family friend of ours for over 40 years. My husband & our two sons obtained their Private Pilot's licenses under his excellent instruction. He saved my husband's life once after an accident. Eddie is as close to being 'family' to us as anyone could ever be. We will always remember him and love him dearly.
RIP Dear Friend

When our kids were younger we would see small planes flying overhead and point out grandpa Butchie to them. It was a sad day for us all to lose our pilot friend and grandpa. Butchies love and personal character is missed by all in his family.

Ed was a great friend to my late husband Allan. They both spent many hours at Republic Airport. Ed shared his love of planes and flying with my husband and my grandson. He is missed.
