Hello 1stpar3! Ack Ack was a monster, it's hard to read about his passing. I know we're all human, I guess I expected all you guys to be immortal.  :airplane:

1stpar3 I've written a few more books since the first Relics.

I can't believe that A man who was the emblem of the way to fly, fight and live to do it again is gone.
He has been a part of the morning prayer to Jesus' right with Betty. I haven't flown with any of you for more than just a year but I'm thinking about dropping a few $ and trying to fly again! It feels to me as though this game is starting to leave us... In more ways than one.

Being a gamer for far more than I'd care to admit though this game has even brought me with quite a few of good friends who even had come to my Birthday party to eat the BEST wings at the well-known place amongst us dweebs living in Litchfield County! I got to meet drink with and fill the gut with the BEST WING'S EVER At "Woods Pitt". Had em and drank a few Dark Beer's with Mars01, Badboy, and Slapshot, Matter of fact I think Stang even had a few of each with me too at Woods Pitt!

Hello,

I am Ack-Acks wife and with much regret I must announce that he passed away on Oct 1, 2022. He loved this game and had many happy hours shooting down people in his p38. I'm sorry for the delay, I was making arrangements for him.

Thank you, Hitech for being someone he highly respected. Thank you for all the hours of fun you gave him.

With much respect,
Zmy; Ack-Acks widow

That's a shame, condolences to his family and friends. Ack-Ack and i go back many years sparing in the arenas, never easy to beat. I just got back in the game and was thinking if I'd run into him.

RIP Ack-Ack

My deepest condolences. Ack-Ack was one, if not the best P-38 drivers in the game. A good guy too.  :salute

Sad to hear of his passing.  A very good 38 driver and overall asset to this community.
