Instead of looking up against Fabiana's critical surgery as during carnaval last year, we may now look forward to begin our flight. The excellent work of Dr. Mattos and his team have surely contributed to make this possible. Apart from guiding us through Fabiana's recovery from her severe trauma, he has written several emails with encouraging words and praising Fabiana's strength. 

A medic writing these emails doesn't only show a good professional, but a good heart as well. As such, Dr. Mattos has gained our great respect for being an excellent medic and a fine human being at the same time.

Willem,
 
Obrigado a vocês pela paciência e compreensão da longa marcha do tratamento. Parabenizamos, especialmente, a Fabiana, pela força demonstrada ao longo do caminho, apesar das dificuldades que passamos todos juntos. Tenham um feliz carnaval e aproveitem o passeio. Na volta, se Deus quiser, daremos início à última etapa do tratamento. Um forte abraço.

Ricardo Mattos, CD

    Quem

    Willem é holandês, vive e trabalha no Brasil desde 2005 e Fabiana é brasileira, natural do Rio de Janeiro. Willem tem voado de trike desde 2001 e já havia completado vôos pelo interior da África do Sul. Fabiana, sua esposa, tem registrado um número significativo de horas de vôo e foi exposta a vários tipos de condições de vôo também.

    I learned to fly ultralights in South Africa and spent much of my time-off flying over the African bush.

    After a work related transfer to Brazil late 2004, it took some time to set up since Rio de Janeiro isn't exactly like Kwazulu Natal. Determined to continue my passion, I eventually passed the exams for a license category which allows us to fly in both general and controlled airspace.

    I am originally from Saquarema, the surfing capital of Rio de Janeiro state. I have logged a significant amount of flying hours and have been exposed to a wide a range of flying conditions since I first met Will 3 years ago. In flight, I take care of the photography, and assists in navigation and radio communications.
