makatakam Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 I just read on the IKE forum that David Kovacs, aka Dayton Dave, died of a massive heart attack. Those who knew David will miss him -- both on the kite field and off. Taken from us much too early. One of the best quad-line flyers with whom I've had the pleasure to cross lines, and member of Illinois Kite Enthusiasts and team 180GO. Sweet winds Dave -- you will be remembered! 1 Quote
John Barresi Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 Aye just saw the news on Facebook. Dave was a super cool guy, always a face I looked forward to seeing... Never political, always gentle, kind and encouraging - one of my favorite folks to run into. Will be flying with you in mind, rest well brother. 1 Quote
mystainedskin Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 I was very fortunate to meet David in T.I. 2 years ago. A super friendly guy and super good pilot. It was a pleasure to know him and a great tragedy he is gone so sudden.I have shed several tears today as Jynx shared a kite they worked on today..design and assembly. It was absolutely awesome to watch it grace the skies in honor and remembrance of him All day today..... 3 Quote
