To all simmers:

 

I hope we all take a moment to reflect on the contributions of this prolific flight simming contributor and wonderful man, on this one year anniversary of his passing.

 

RIP Opa.

I never knew him, but Amen to that.

We all miss Opa. He was a great presence around AVSIM and FS, and will never be forgotten.

He is very much missed..

Thank you "hightower" for the timely reminder of David's 1st anniversary. I'll leave this thread open, pinned to the top and flagged "Forum Alert" for the next week or so.

Thanks for starting this topic and thaks for giving it deserved special attention, Bill.

 

My thought and prayers continue to be with Dave's family.

 

Anybody know what his favorite Aircraft was?

 

That would be a B737 in Southwest colors.

 

regards,

Joe

He was a great guy, put's a smile on my face when I search avsim and one of his posts has the solution for me.

He was such a nice guy and I regret never offering to take him out for dinner. We lived not even 10 minutes from one another and I never met him in person. I always planned to meet him thinking that he would be around for a long time, but things always got in the way. I regret not making the time since he passed way before his time.

That happens all too often doesn't it?

 

Woulda...coulda...shoulda...but didn't.

It's a fine tribute to the guy that he's still helping people, and will continue doing so as long as his posts here exist..
