MegOhm_SD Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 Guys, Would anyone be interested in putting together a large A10C flight in honor of our friend Blooze? I think it would be something he would have liked as the Hawg was his passion. Lots of talented people here...it would be a fitting tribute if someone could make a video from the flight and put Jim's music to it. The missing man formation could be included? 1 Cooler Master HAF XB EVO , ASUS P8Z77-V, i7-3770K @ 4.6GHz, Noctua AC, 32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro, EVGA 1080TI 11GB, 2 Samsung 840 Pro 540GB SSDs Raid 0, 1TB HDD, EVGA SuperNOVA 1300W PS, G930 Wireless SS Headset, TrackIR5/Wireless Proclip, TM Warthog, Saitek Pro Combat Pedals, 75" Samsung 4K QLED, HP Reverb G2, Win 10

BaconSarnie Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 Didnt know the guy but have seen his posts on the forum, my condolences to his friends and family. And lo, Reverend Vegas did say "Take forth unto the infidel the mighty GAU 8 and expend its holy 30MM so that freedom will be brung upon them who knoweth not the joys of BBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTT" "Amen"

Ohgr Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 Lots of talented people here...it would be a fitting tribute if someone could make a video from the flight and put Jim's music to it. The missing man formation could be included? I had an idea for this basically a V with 11 hawgs outer to inner hogs pulling right and left based on their side in the formation and lead pulls skyward when all others have made the break in their respective directions. I have his music on file I will do the best I can. 3d I can do video editing needs a little work but will do my best unless we have a taker who can help out.

SilentGun Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 Rest in peace Blooze.

Teeter Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 Our sympathy, apologies, and best wishes to Jim's loved ones from the RAZBAM team. Blooze is just one of those names we've heard/read for quite a long time, it is almost shocking to find that something has happened to him. It is a fair reminder to us all that everybody here is a human being, it can be easy to forget. /Gregory Smiddy Programming Heatblur Simulations https://www.facebook.com/heatblur/

Windypants Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 Lost to the DCS community Huge loss to the DCS community. I've flown with Blooze on several occasions and he had an outstanding knowledge of the A-10. He did voice work on a mission for me. He will be missed. Rest in peace. mission with Blooze voice overs called FOB Windy
DieHard Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) I used to fly my copter on his server, he always had interesting missions. Yeah, about his interesting gruff voice, gonna' miss that. He gave me the opinion he was a bright / smart guy. A lot of my buddies, my age bracket, Blooze's age, too, been dying off. Had a close call about a year ago. Got to pay attention to one's health and mind the doctors' advice. My Navy Seabee base was in Gulfport, MS on the Gulf coast. He lived upstate about midway. Interesting people there, great food. Sad to hear this. Jim Mudgett Jackson, Mississippi (Last selection, he is singing.) He toured with this guy according to post #1, this thread: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Luther+Allison Looking for an old video tape of him. Blooze is playing guitar on this recording: ========================== Mr. Brown Band 1973 and some photos : ========================== -+- Memorial Flight ========== Edited August 19, 2017 by DieHard [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
