wrylypost aka Joseph Anthony passed away

Ever as a long-time lurker I seem to have attracted some attention in this
newsgroup. Apparently wrylypost had "book-marked' me - I did get the
occasional e-mail from him if I said something he liked -- so his son
e-mailed me this week to say that his father, "wrylypost aka Joseph
Anthony," had passed away.

The late gentleman surely had the most clever handle ever for an aviation
newsgroup, and he did seem to know his airplanes too. I for one will miss
his presence here.

Words on side of the fuselage says "F.C.Hall Oklahoma City Okla." Hall was
the purchaser of this aircraft. Wiley Post was his personal pilot.

05/22/2005. Remarks by Pat Loop: "The 'Winnie May' made the first flight
around the world in 8 days, 16 hours, piloted by Wiley Post with Harold
Gatty as navigator, in June 1931. Wiley Post also made the first solo flight
around the world in this aircraft, in 7 days, 19 hours, in July 1933."



His "moniker" reminded me of an aviation pioneer.

Please pass along my sincerest condolences.
Wrylypost will be missed.

Godspeed "wrylypost." May your wx always be CAVU and your flight plan
be cleared for immediate ascent to the heavens.

We will miss you.

We all wish him a safe flight home.

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 Jr.

That's sad, Brian, but thanks for letting us know. You're
right, he was a good and witty poster and I always jealous
that I didn't think of a clever nic like that.

I think it would be appropriate if you would pass along to
his son the condolences from all of us here at abpa.
Cheers,
