Cutty plane crash

Just saw on news and my heart sank that cutty resident alan spaulding died in a plane crash on cutty today. To anyone who has visited my island he and his brother pretty much own half the island. Alan had just built the strip u crossed headin to sw corner.
A real bummer. He was always so friendly with me and even though
he was not a fisherman was always interested in my fishin lies

The name Alan Spaulding keeps ringing in my head......pretty sure a family member of his bought a couple of my pencil poppers for him as a gift! I remember them saying he was in Delaware but Summered on Cutty. Had no idea he was the gentleman that owned the plane? We had a little e-mail correspondence telling him how to use them. Very sad.

Oh crap..I meet him on Sea Horse few years ago and had a lengthily conversation about wind mills, his family history and Cutty
Damn, he seemed like a very nice man. I don’t think he could ever understand what we were doing there but always was gracious about letting everyone use his property
RIP

Sad news, I never really met him except saying hi in passing a few times. He seemed like a nice guy, I will always be indebted to him for letting us use his property. RIP Alan.

wow that is really sad
sorry to hear this awful news

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Very sad, met him at a party on island with the Cutty boys.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Wow I heard of a small plane crash. Not knowing who died in crashed. Conversed with Mr. Spaulding at an awards party for CSA & Cutty Rod & Gun club. Thanked him for letting us use his property during our joint fishing event.
