99Capera's Memorial
« on: October 20, 2026, 08:32:14 AM »
A brief gathering is scheduled next Sunday, October 25th at 2:00 pm EDT in the Special Events 2 (SEA2) arena in honor of 99 Capera's untimely passing.

Jaeger1 has kindly offered to set up the NDIsles areana with a limited plane set. We'll gather at one of the center island Rook airfields.

Thanks Jaeger <S>  Please change the MOTD that implies this is a Rook only event. All are welcome! We will gather at A43 in Cappy's fav ride, P-47N. Capera's skin of preference is
Greebo's 318FG/333FS    (Naked Lady)

Looking forward to seeing everyone at 2:00 EDT today in SEA2 arena!

I logged in to send my :salute but couldn’t fly and several people were talking about recording so I’m sure they’ll be more than one.

Wow! What a fabulous turnout! Thank you to everybody who participated and again my appreciation to Jaeger1 for his help getting things set up and keeping things rolling smoothly.

More than anything else, what's kept me active in the silly game for 24 years is the community. You guys are awesome.
