Very sorry to hear this. Also did a lot of testing at MIR with Jim back in the 70's . All of my customers used ATI stuff and I sold a lot of it. Funny thing was I always ran a 4 speed and he picked on me constantly about it but always invited me to test day anyway. Extremely smart man and always fun to talk to . I know this has left a big hole in the lives of his family and will be sorely missed. God Speed Jim

Very sad news, a true innovator in the business. Thoughts and prayers go out to the Beattie family

Re: Jim Beattie
 

A good honest man that always remembered what he said, and would do what he said. He will be missed! Condolences to the Beattie and ATI families.
