Sorry to hear of your loss Denny Jr. I remember that accident well,and still hard watching pax getting out alive! That was a VERY modified CRM "OJT" that worked,thanks to your Dad and the other flt. crew. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family.
My deepest and heartfelt condolences go out to his family.
What an idol he was. I watched the documentary about UAL232
so many times and it's overwhelming over and over. R.I.P.

RIP. Fly with the angels
Your father was a true hero and an example of how aviators should be. May he rest in peace.

Yes, it is not a typo, I am Captain Fitch's son, Denny Jr. The outpouring of support, prayers, condolences and inspiration is awe inspiring. My Dad polished my flying skills, but more importantly taught me everything else in life. Flying is one thing. Living is another. To paraphrase Dad's philosophy, "live in today, tomorrow is not guaranteed". Your love and support for the family is as humbling as the realization of how many lives this quiet, unassuming, unsung hero has touched. God Bless you all.
