Official "Fundy's back to reality" after Blue Angels crash Thread

Hey everyone, as some of you might have heard, we lost one of our pilots this last weekend during an airshow in South Carolina. I've been working like non-stop for the past 6 days and I really haven't been on here that much. I was told by certain people on this forum that after you guys heard about the crash, that you were thinking about me. I just wanted to thank all the people who wrote me. All the kind words really lifted my spirits during a really rough week. I'm O.K. and "the team" is back to doing what we do best. Again, thanks for all the support, I really needed it.

P.S. When do the playoffs start? :laugh

Hey man, you guys have any shows in the LA / San Diego area coming up? I've always wanted to see the Blue Angels. I never missed the Thunderbirds yearly shows at Randolph AFB when I was a kid, but I never caught the Angels, since SA isn't a Navy town.

Hey Fundi--I can't go to LaCrosse for the show. Will you and the team be anywhere else that is close?? Believe me, it was a very hard decision. ---cheese

What do you do fundy?

I'm a Avionics Tech on the aircraft. I basically maintain all the avionics. Make sure all the jets are good before they take off.
