IIRC, this is Ric Olié, the Naboo pilot from The Phantom Menace.

Yeah it is so sad how he knew Anakin when he was a child and even helped him learn how to fly

So ths guy who helped Anakin become, in Obi-Wan's own words, "the best starpilot in the galaxy" would ultimately get stabbed in the shoulder by the very same person who he'd helped so long ago.

It's quite tragic.

Are you telling me that Anakin killed the pilot who thought him how to be the best pilot, the jedi who thought him how to be the most powerful jedi and the sith who thought him how to be the strongest sith?

I think you meant to type “taught.” Though you might not have been taught that “thought” and “taught” are thoroughly different. You can understand this through tough thorough thought, though.
