THis was sad and scarey news to me as KASSA Island is our favourite fishing / jolling / party place

Last time I was there (In February) a formo of three Mig's came buzzing over us a few times (yes we flew the American flag)

About two years ago their Gunship came overhead and gave a great buzz - up until he came air taxying past and saw it was me.

Then we had a GREAT Airshow (Russian Test Pilot) by a great friend.

Eischhh maybe I must look up other "fishing waters"

Anyway RIP Mate - could not remeber the guy - just know the chopper jocks.

Aircraft in use : Mi -8 / 17 , Mi - 24 / Hughes 500's (from Israel) and then the Mig's.

Cheers,

Gunss
