For those not aware, Roy was an avid pilot and aircraft owner. He often flew himself to shows in his MU-2.
He owned several other aircraft as well.

Sad. I don’t know he was still around however.
Cool info about flying the MU-2. Tough aircraft to master.
I flew right seat in one from Dallas to Milwaukee last March. What a ride. It lands hot with those tiny wings, and is loud as hell. But that’s the first time I’ve been in the flight levels with a front seat view. Damn, I loved it.

Two guys in the hangar across from me at KFTG died in MU-2's. Didn't know Roy was a pilot. I just remember Misty Row from Hee Haw.

Yep, they are demanding aircraft. And loud as hell. I think you can get in trouble fast in them. The guy who owns the one that I flew is a friend who flew C-130s for the USAF, flies a 767 or 777 for a Major, owns a T-33 and an F-86 Sabre, and flies the Sabre in airshows. I’ll tell you it was fascinating watching a real pro fly the Rice Rocket (MU-2).

When I lived in Colorado, and was based at Front Range Airport there was a commercial operation that ran exclusively MU-2's located there. Two of them went down in a short period of time due to bad weather, icing, etc and the pilot's response or non-response to the conditions. That's where the new training requirements came from. Those two accidents were the reason.
Like anything, knowing them well probably takes away the fear. I mean I've known pilots who were scared of my little Tiger because it had a rep for being "hard to land". Nothing could be further from the truth.
