       I will not forget them.

Hmm edited because I probably misunderstood this topic. Well there's always this possibility when english isn't your mother language. Sorry about that.

I still think about Whitey at least weekly.
He rekindled my interest in WWII aviation and turned me on to flight sims.  He was a great friend.
It was never a dull moment with Whitey, Mr. Adventure.

<S> to Whitey, SN1P3R, and the loved ones of our AH friends who are no longer with them.

The many happy hours with Whitey on line and in his T-6 are the best times of my life. There are still times when I answer my phone and expect to hear Whitey's voice; "Wanna go flying?".

To those we miss and to those whose shoes we strive to fill <SALUTE> !!

To quote a poet I know all too well:

"For the friendship we have forged
 will fill my heart my whole life through.
 Though you savor different sunsets
 I will often think of you."

Gone, maybe, but not forgotten.

Hblair,this is one of the most touching tributes i have ever seen, ,i am not afaid to admit that it makes me come close to tears,i never knew Sn1p3r but wish i had,it just makes you think,enjoy life while you can because there are no guarantees.
 Salute to all involved,Salute to Hblair and the HTC team for opening up the SEA for this flyby.
 PS i know this all happened a while ago and i don't want to open any fresh wounds but i only downloaded the film a couple days ago,(hblairs) i used to have the various .ahf's taken by the participants but have lost that HDD.....:(
 PPS Hitech,i wonder if the new film viewer you are working on will be able to open old format films? :)
 Steely.
