Too bad we don't have the option to name fields with the names of our fellow travelers who have graced our virtual world. Or christen CV groups, even the new battleships that will be in AHIII. Not sure if the younger players would understand, or if the inclusion criterion would even be doable.

Even allow a logo spot on your ride like the squad art to carry a remembrance, HTC approved naturally.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

it would be a good idea to list of and give 3 moments of silence to each soul we have lost. Make a toast to them and fly a pattern

Okay 32 Views and Vet Players do not even have a thought about this Tributes to all the fallen AH players from the pat year???????


this is very Sad

I wasn't sure whether I should say anything, but decided that it might help others settle their feelings if I did so here goes.

Mols, don't be discouraged. People deal with grief in their own way. Yours is to honor our friends with a show, gathering, other are ok with dealing with it in private in their own little ways. Tipping a glass, or 5 to a fallen comrade while sitting at home quietly is how some like to handle it.

I have never been to a "memorial flight" and I don't think I ever will. It just isn't my way. I have seen a number of friends leave us due to cancer, accidents, medical issues and just plain old "old age".

All Im saying, is it's great you want to put together something like this for those who feel the need to join in, but don't let it sadden you, nor should it bother others if they don't want to participate. I may be that it just isn't how they deal with this kind of stuff.

 :salute to all those the community has lost. 

We can also honor them by keeping up the fight - and keeping this game afloat until the new version eventually arrives.

 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

I'm in mols.  Ranger had an idea I liked.  Maybe upon entering the arena, the message of the day could list all the known fallen pilots with a brief written salute.

It is just something I threw together as a thought and I have a month to plan something that will hopefully cover the area's of the Game that these players loved to do. It will be something different. and when i come home tonight I will start working with the AvA guys and maybe Ranger can work some magic with one of his Maps as an honor to the Players

All I need is a list of names Brutha.  I'll make something special.  If we can get pics of them, I can add them in also, on the sides of buildings & such. :salute
