Just a brief remark for clarification.

While all VAs are certainly free to pay their tributes and respects in such sad occasions at their own leisure, this Eastavia event is not the official memorial event which is being organized by VACCBiH on a much larger scale and scheduled to take place around mid-August (currently tracking aug 16th but official announcement is yet to come on VATSIM forums). The event is taking a while to organize, due to the planned dedicated webpage launch, the preparation of full ATC coverage in BiH and all neighbouring FIRs, the preparation of routes, maps and instructions for low passes, planned movie captures and editing and so on. Once the details have been ironed out and announced officially by VACCBiH, I'll post a reminder here, but meanwhile of course all Air Child pilots are very welcome to fly to Sarajevo and other BiH airports tonight or whenever they please. It's a beautiful country with interesting fields and flying there can be very rewarding :)

All pilots, VAs and people of good hearts are kindly invited to fly the official farewell for Irhad R. Durakovic, our beloved vACCBiH Founder who passed away due to his illness nvCJD on end July 2011 at early age of 24.

vACCBiH will in co-operation with surrounding vACCs and several VAs hold this memorial fly in and cover his hometown Sarajevo/LQSA and Bosnia-Herzegovina (primarly enroute) with full ATC.

Your only job is to visit his Sarajevo, overfly his grave at Vlakovo Cemetery (between KG NDB and threshold runway 12 on APP/DEP LQSA runway 12/30) from which he now can watch all Sarajevo-planes passing him as they did over his flat at Ilidza-suburb, and thereby show him your respect and farewell.

We will do the rest and the fly in will not only contain a classical crowded Sarajevo fly in with holds and contra flow operations as he most liked, but also different happenings in respect and memory of Irhad.

To make it a remembered farewell, please download and check following:
