Very sad and shocking news.  I've known Vega for a long time going back to Warbirds.   :salute

So very sorry to hear this Dickweeds.  Vega was a standup fella I always enjoyed flying around.  Condolences to his family and you Gents and Ladies.

Thank you Papafox. I never had the honor to meet Vega, but you I think have done him a great service to illuminate, even if it is relatively but a flicker of light, on the man he was and the things he accomplished. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. We should all be so fortunate to have been half as lucky in life as him.

Godspeed, Vega.

The Dickweeds have lost a friend, a mentor and a damn good pilot, and so suddenly, it's hard to get my head around it.

Salute Vega, fair winds and friendly skies.
