I lost a good friend yesterday, :( and a big triple enthusiast. I was just talking to him a day ago about doing some jetting on his bike. If you are so inclined, send good thoughts and a prayer to his family. It was Jan Zanutto, he just finished his replica bike of my bike. It's his bike on the masthead. RIP my friend..........

This is a post from his daughter,

To answer a lot of questions about my father Jan Eric Zanutto. He died doing what he loved - gliding. We do not know why but one wing came off and he spiraled. He was not able to eject in time. Reports say it was instant. We are dealing with this as a family. My father was an amazing man.

Sorry to hear this John! I've seen his posts over the years on several boards and knew he was one of us. Will pray for his family and many friends.....

Sorry to hear of Jan's passing, never good, never easy. Thoughts are with his family and friends.

I've had two friends pass in the last month and a half, I miss their friendship.

I so looked forward to his frequent facebook posts with him gliding.
He loved it and lived on the edge and enjoyed life.
Prayers in this hard time for his loved ones.
Thanks for sharing Jan, Godspeed buddy.
