• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Napacon Gone West

[FONT=Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]I was reviewing a post started by Napacon regarding Bill and Lynn Lyons work. I don't think it was noted on the forum but Vinnie Nappi aka Napacon or Beana 51 went West this past May. He was 88 and a member of our team. As a licensed pilot he was a true supporter of vintage aviation and all things simulation. He will be missed. [/FONT]

Wow, I had no idea. A great guy who, as you said loved vintage airplanes, and reminiscing about his early days as a pilot who loved the old grass strip, out of the way airports. Many years ago he and I put together a series of airport sceneries for the airports he visited (Downsville, White Birch, SkyTop (Michael Carr), Valley View and a few others) He was thrilled and I always felt good that he was able to enjoy the past that way. RIP Vinnie!
