Wing Commander Falkowski and Colonel Gabreski were former members of the real Northolt Wing and our virtual Wing had been in contact with both of them. So it was important to us to do something to remember them. I'm glad to see we weren't the only ones who felt that way. Since the personal aircraft marking of both men are depicted in AH, the flyby seemed like the thing to do. Thanks to all who flew and thanks to Hitech for technical support. We'll have some pics up soon.

Kweassa: Falkowski passed away on July 27, 2001, but we just learned of it recently. http://www.harryh.com/hheath/tribute.htm
