Farewell to the Flying Farmer, the Legendary Charlie Kulp
The air show community lost one of its legendary performers on October 17th, with the passing of Charlie Kulp, aka Silas the Flying Farmer, at the grand age of 96. Charlie was a quintessential stick-and-rudder man, and one of the finest aviators ever to put a Piper Cub through its paces. He was also one of the kindest and most decent men you could ever met, with a broad grin rarely far from his lips... albeit buried beneath that bushy beard he so proudly wore!
