[NJairheads] Fwd: Matt Parkhouse bike crash

[William F. Dudley Jr.]

Some of you may have heard this news on the Airlist or Facebook.
Some of you may have met Matt at the Maryland Supertech this past 
February, or know him from his tech seminars at MOA rallys, or know him
from his columns ("Keep 'Em Flying") in the MOA magazine.

Matt crashed on I-40 in Arizona a few days ago.  He's quite banged up, 
but he's repairable.

> Matthew was riding down I-40 east, headed for home. The wind blew him

> that as he tried to slow down. He then hit about fifty feet of open 
> space. At the end of that was a 
> guardrail. He hit the soft (soft being subject to interpretation) end 
> piece. The bike flipped and Matthew was sent hurtling thirty feet 
> through the air to land Face down. He broke four ribs, has a large 
> hematoma on his upper, inner leg, multiple bruises and adhesions from 
> head to toe. He is in major pain. Our home address is 1129 West Pikes 
> Peak Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80904. 
> The bike is being taken care of. Hope to have him home in a couple of 
> days. Then an EMT friend will take over for a little. Just glad he’s
