Tinkickef Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 A friend of his just let me know. Passed away last night. We lost another good one. We were trying to get him interested in DCS and maybe contributing something, but sadly he was too ill. He did show some interest in the youtube harrier videos though. Don't know if Nick Grey knew him, but he might like to know. John Farley, now soars like an Eagle. Condolences to his family and friends. Bit about him. https://dunsfoldairfield.org/john-farley-afc-obe/ System spec: i9 9900K, Gigabyte Aorus Z390 Ultra motherboard, 32Gb Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200 RAM, Corsair M.2 NVMe 1Tb Boot SSD.

joey45 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 R.I.P. my Condolences to his family and friends. Blue Skies. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

ouPhrontis Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) John Farley, I recall watching him explain the flight controls of the Harrier in documentaries - a great intro to what makes the Harrier unique - and moving the nozzles by hand from the outside. Here he is climbing nose-up vertically at Farnborough, 1982; May your skies be forever CAVOK, fly in peace.
