Guys, I'm keeping track of EVERYONE who wants to fly, I WILL email or PM everyone who has posted or sent mail, with specifics early as possible this evening.

I had thought about the DA, but decided on the MA instead, the plan is to fly Rook.  Although it may require that some switch countries, at least it will be easy to find, and some can combine this with their normal routine and/or squad night. The 327th has a Wednesday night squad night anyway.

Of course, if there was a U.S. vs. Japan AvA setup tonight, we'd do that. However, I've been busy at work and at the race track, and haven't had time to look yet.

Spiffing, thank you very much for the pic, and of course than you Dan for the AAR of Ken's victory.

I don't think it would be necessary to change sides.  We've had memorial flybys in the past.  It was announced in the MA and the majority of the MA participated.  Don't remember anyone during these memorial flights being an idiot and shooting down a participant.

Bish Rooks and Knights can all form at a point on the Map and lap the terrain.

I like this idea. Give me a grid and I'm there.

I have sent a reply to everyone I have a PM or an email from.

In the event that you didn't send me anything, and didn't get a reply, some time around 9:15 PM Eastern, log in to the MA and private text me, and I'll make every effort to hook you up if at all possible.

The emails and PMs were pretty much form letter type format, don't be put off by the fact that they were not "personal", I just didn't have enough time.

Thank you to all who expressed an interest, and sent thoughts and/or prayers along to the family.

I got a couple of late requests, and got the m sent out.

Now, if you decide not to switch countries, send me a private text around 9:15 and we'll try to accomodate you.

Thanks,

The flight was pretty successful, thank you to everyone who came. Please send me your films and screenshots. We'll try to edit everything and come up with something really nice.
