Ross-impress Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) R.I.P Jim. I've been the lucky person who could met Jim at Brussels. Jim asked my son (then he was 6 years) to fly the black shark, he did. Yes indeed he really really loved the peoples and his passion. You will be missed Jim..

Teknetinium Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) 51st have a good memory of Jim from a photography we saw him in. It was Jim whit a German squad from Lockon meeting on some sort of event in Germany. I believe our squad never had such a good laughter when we saw them in their fictional G-suits, It made hole our squad to burst in to laughter whit a question who was the only guy whit no G-suit on him. It turned out to be Jim. RIP. Edited June 21, 2013 by Teknetinium 51st PVO Discord SATAC YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief1942 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 "High Flight" Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there, I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air.... Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew — And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, - Put out my hand, and touched the face of God. John Gillespie Magee RIP Jim. Knowing that your finger prints are all over this genre so many of us find enjoyment in, will be your lasting legacy.

Ells228 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Guys, On the 26th September it would have been Jim's 66th birthday. I am setting up a memorial flight for that evening - 19:00GMT, 20:00BST, 21:00CET on the Virtual Aerobatics server. I will post details closer to the time but would like to invite anyone that is interested in taking part. We may be limited to 32 on the sever without lag but will give it a go. Thanks, Chris. As the wind blows, way up high, I soar like a bird into the sky. As I spread my wings, in flight, Do not cry, do not fight. I am amongst the clouds, and rain and sun, Where I belong, where I came from. Remember me close, remember me near, For true flying legends, are always here.

Pman Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Just in addition to Ells' post above, Virtual Aerobatics is honoured to host this and we would encourage as many people as possible to sign up for this, I will also be looking to arrange for the event to be live streamed as well for those who cant fly or are unable to get in.

cichlidfan Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Grand idea.
