Just a note to let you know that my dear friend and RV10 builder Mike Howe passed away last week. For many of you, his web site was of great value. He took several hundred photos of each step in the build process. His passion was flying and to be able to build the RV10 brought him great joy. We used your help on the forum to keep us out of too much trouble. For those of you who may not have seen his web site: http://www.etigerrr.com/Default.htm His obituary is below.

I know he appreciated all of your comments, especially the “primer wars”.

He certainly will be missed. Thanks for letting us know, Rick.
He was a great guy. We stopped by his hangar and saw him on
one of our trips out to Utah. He was one of those fellas with
an extreme love of aviation and someone who treated all of
us builders as good friends. It's too bad we lost him.

I'm sorry to hear that Rick. I never met him personally but I always enjoyed following along on the site.
He's going to be missed.

I used the website along with Tim Olson’s for hundreds of references. Pictures and descriptions were excellent!
A real asset to the RV-10 builders! So Glad he saw it’s completion and won an award for the effort!
He’ll be missed!

My condolences. Mike was kind enough to show me around the plane you share
and the hangar a couple years ago. I have relied on his website constantly.
A real gentleman.

Terrible news! I never met him personally but chatted several times via email. Always very helpful and encouraging. You can almost build an RV10 with the instruction on his site alone.

Mike will be missed at the airport. He was the guy who was willing to do anything to help you with a project or anything else. I will miss him stopping by to say hi.
Rick, I am sure glad you helped Mike finish the RV-10. It is great he was able to fly it and enjoy it before passing.

I wish to express my condolences to the family as well. As an absolute
newbie, I remember scrutinizing his site with its high resolution photos
as we paralleled progress on our projects and got to exchange a couple
of emails about this or that. At some point the updates to the site
stopped without definite conclusion on the project. It is great to hear
we both got to finish and fly. For that I am grateful for his
contribution to us all.
Thanks Mike!

In my short visit a couple years ago, it seemed that the EAA members at
Bountiful Airport truly were a family, especially the RV-10 builders.
When you look at what Mike contributed with his web site, Rick in
helping Mike finish and fly, what Sean and Scott managed to do with the
supplemental door latch and other mods, it is quite a contribution to
the RV-10 community. Thanks to all.

This is very sad news.
I never tired of watching Mike’s progress, and whenever the head scratching commenced, his was one of the sites I’d invariably search, and just as invariably find the answer. Then the site seemed to go quiet (as did mine, of course), which made me feel somehow left without a mentor. I never met him, but am certainly going to miss his presence.
RIP Mike.
