does anybody have any info on Hooter?    1 day he was on next he was gone never to come back.

There used to be a GV'er with the callsign "Butcher." He was good friends with Hooter. Butcher told everyone of Hooters passing several years ago.

Butcher recently left a post he might come back to AH. If he does you can find out more details.

Hooter was a great guy and will be missed. I remember when he landed over 200 kills with a Panther G at the v134 spawn back
when we still had the Trinity map in the rotation. Players kept running him supps so he could keep the streak going.

Please add the name of snark to this list. He got me into the game and started teaching me before he had his heart attack. A truly great friend and person. I miss him every day.

A couple of names that just disappeared for me are Sads and GRIM.... I do not know if they passed or just stopped playing.... Sads was my first best fight of AH ...you know the one that you get to have about three turns before you die.... and GRIM with his HurriII .... was always a nice guy after killing me over and over.

Geez there are a lot of names on that list that I remember from flight sims from way back in the day. I haven't checked in here in a long time but I thought this might be a good one to read through till I read the list....so many folks that I have bantered with on the forums and in the game but good folks for the most part.

Thanks for putting that list up there.

68KO...  I flew in his memorial and it was very touching.  About a week after I was jacking with some film and he had said some (nice) things to me during FSO and I got serious chills.

OzKansas....Charlie. A wonderful man.

13th TAS commissioned a map in his honor. The first OzKansas map was totally awesome. It evolved over the years, never as good as the first one, IMO.

I remember flying with him many times Toad - always eager to wing up and fly along right up to the end. I miss Charlie and think of him often.
