R.I.P. Akemi

Fly high and fast Akemi,

God Bless,

Graham.


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 ever 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.

I learned, almost incidentally, the new yesterday, seeking here the latest works of Akemi Mizoguchi.

Sad news. From a generous and talented designer, who has accompanied my playful flights CFS2, and later with FS9.

Rest in peace, Akemi san.
 
Happy trails Akemi san. Thank you so much for all of the time, skill, and good heart you put in enhancing the CFS2 experience for all of us. It was always like Christmas when you released a new plane.

RIP.

Akemi san was a wonderful part of this community and always will be. His work was very good, and accurate and he helped share the amazing work done in Japan for the furthering of flight. I just finished reading a book about the development of the Zero by its creator and it was a fascinating story. It is clear that there was a deep love of flight in Japan and the highest standards of development and design, and they were much to be admired. I am glad we had Akemo's models while we did, and it is still sad to think of him passing, i lit a candle for him and said prayers on Bon. Will always be grateful for his work.

I am working quite a lot these days with people from and in Japan in various areas and have great admiration and respect for the culture, and I plan to move there at some point for an extended time for work. I look forward to learning more about the history of their history of flight development.

明美さんは、このコミュニティの素晴らしい部分だったと常になります。彼の作品は非常に良い、かつ正確であり、彼は飛行のために日本で行わ素晴らしい仕事を共有して助けた。私はちょうどその作成者がゼロの開発についての本を読み終え、それは魅惑的な話だった。それは、そこに日本での飛行と開発·設計の最高水準の深い愛だった、と彼らは賞賛れるべき多くいたことは明らかである。私たちがやった中に私たちは明美のモデルを持っていた嬉しいです、そしてそれはまだ彼が渡し考えるのは悲しいですが、私は彼のためにろうそくを点灯し、ボンに祈りを言った。常に彼の仕事のために感謝するでしょう。

私は、様々な分野で日本からの人々とこれらの日は非常に多くの作業と文化のための偉大な賞賛と尊敬を持っている、と私は仕事のために延長された時間のためにいくつかの時点でそこに移動することを計画しています。私は飛行開発の彼らの歴史の歴史について学ぶことを楽しみにしています。
