Rupert Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I know there's a ton of new posters and viewers who've shown up after the the newest Microsoft flight sim came out. But this forum precedes that flight sim's opening by decades. One of our most frequent posters over many years was Jan Peerhoven who lived and posted from his home in an actual RW tram station in Brussels. I haven't seen hide nor hair of postings him for some months. But I pray he is still doing well! I on a regular basis "borrowed" various aircraft from Jan's "hanger." So in the hopes than Jan will see this, I'll post a recent flight in his Green King Air to where I've had the experience of flying real world into in a Cessna and driven to more than once in my Miata. We're going from 2S7 Cohiloquin State airport which is the home airport of another of our long term posters Phantom Tweak and his wife Ms Ghost. As an old RW USMC fixed wing and Ch-34 and CH-46 pilot during Vietnam, I was thrilled to spend time with them where they lived when I visited with them. Pat suffered a 100% disability while serving in the USMC at Yuma Arizona and she has suffered several issues herself but neither of them ever lost their positive point of view. They were burned out of their home in Oregon a couple of years ago and I've not been able to regain contact. But I pray they are still doing as well as possible! I hope you enjoy this the views from this "old world" sim. Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardCub Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Great job on this post Michael. :cool: Jan is still alive and doing well. I'm Facebook friends with him & Bianca. I haven't been around here either for a long long time because I have had my computer system issues fixed until recently, and my real-world job demands almost ALL of my time. (sadly not joking) I know Jan will enjoy this post when he sees it. :D -Glenn 2021 Lenovo Legion 5 Gaming laptop.

I just hope Jan remembers I'll fly her home to him if he'll just give me a current credit card to pay for the fuel. That plane really sucks it up!:eek::eek: Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peer01 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 (edited) Jan is NOT amused at all you hear! :mad: I could not post here because it took me months to find and collect all my so called borrowed planes from all over the world! PAH! Oh, and I live in Amsterdam, and NOT in Brussels Belgium you hear! Our friend JanKees lives in Belgium. TSK! And if you ever lay a finger on one of my precious planes again, you´ll experience a festival of old fashioned nose punches!:mad: Edited October 10, 2022 by peer01 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupert Posted October 12, 2022 Author Share Posted October 12, 2022 Hey Jan I'm sorry I forgot about you being in Amsterdam. That may be part of why I haven't been able to bring your Green King Air home. Though basically it's because those older King Airs are so fuel thirsty!! :eek: On more than one occasion I've had to borrow fuel from other aircraft to keep it fueled and flying!! Having said that, my offer is still good. Loan me a current credit card and I'll fly your King Air home, wherever it is you live at that time.
