I remember Coho, good player and a real nice guy.

I miss the old EW, MW and LW days.

Was a frequent flier with Eaglhrt (if I recall the name correctly)

In my best voice:

Boy, the way Glenn Miller played
songs that made the hit parade
Guys like me we had it made
Those were the days
Didn't need no welfare state
ev'rybody pulled his weight
gee our old LaSalle ran great
Those were the days
And you knew who you were then
girls were girls and men were men
Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again
 
People seemed to be content
fifty dollars paid the rent
freaks were in a circus tent
Those were the days
Take a little Sunday spin
go to watch the Dodgers win
Have yourself a dandy day
that cost you under a fin
Hair was short and skirts were long
Kate Smith really sold a song
I don't know just what went wrong
those were the days

Nuff Said

I remember fun times in early or midwar, can't recall which one. It was the one with the hurri2. I think it was midwar.

 There was a guy named Sparky or something like that who we used to tease and call Sparkles (back when things like that were still allowed) We used to insult the crap out of each other and have a bunch of fun.

His official name was Sparky. "Sparkles" was an affectation. Pretty good stick...he flew the Zeke well, as I recall.

This jogged my memory I remember the sparkles stuff!
Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

He flew a number of rides and was proficient in all of them.
