Godspeed Rich.Fly my friend, fly.Pieter Miller

Well Rich, you were cleared for departure, have a wonderful journey. We will all see you again. God Bless your family and may they be given strength to move on.I'll never understand why the good have to die so young when there are so many more "deserving" people that need to go......

Thank you Rich for the many wonderful hours of pure magic of simulated flight.You made FLY! feel like I was up in the air.Although you were very busy managing FLY!, I'll never forget how you personally took the time, and answered my post once. Now there's a guy who cares!I hope you can read this message from your resting place up in the stratosphere.Eytan TJSJ

Godspeed Rich, I truly believe you changed the face of things in this hobby forever. My family endured this battle in the past also, I'm quite sure that everyone's thoughts and prayers will be with Rich's family at this time and that is a great and powerful thing. It will be tough going for a while, but rest assured, brighter days will come. CH

Thanks for the good dreams Rich !!See you my friend..

GoodBye Rich, see you in heaven!Jacek

All of us here at AVSIM join the Fly! community on wishing Richard Peace, God Speed and Clear Skies. Those that have had the pleasure of knowing Richard online and those of us who were lucky enough to know him personally have all been blessed with the company of one of the truly good people in this world. May we all celebrate his life and his friendship as we mourn his passing.http://www.avsim.com/pages/robert/kirkland.jpg
