He was a big poster on the Matronics list back in the day, and was quite active in the Western Canada wing of Vans Air Force. He died on this date 9 years ago, and as I recall, his passing didn't get the notice it probably should have because Scott Crossfield died on the same day. But I got this email today based on a post I'd written some years ago and because I never had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Bohay, I can't supply the answers he's seeking. But I'm hoping someone else can. ------------------- Quote: Sir; I was doing a bit of internet research on an old acquaintance named Eustace Bohay, and came across a post of yours from 2006 (!) referring to the death of someone with that name. The Eustace Bohay I remember used to fly in and out of Hay River, N.W.T. (in northern Canada) in a P-51. He was a friend of my employer at the time, and what I remember most about him was that Mustang, and the sound of that Merlin on takeoff. Our shop was right off the end of the runway, and he'd make sure he came over the roof at about 30', and full bore. I'd be all the rest of the day getting the grin off my face. I wonder if it could be the same guy - I was just a kid then (in the late '50s and early '60s) and admit I don't recall a lot more about him. It's not a very common name however, and adding the element of aviation makes it seem even more possible that it's the same guy. I'm not even sure what his business was up there, but it would have most likely been related to either the construction boom of that era, or the (then) thriving commercial fishery on Great Slave Lake. If you could shed any light on him, or point me toward any relevant information, I'd be most grateful. Thank You, Karl Krieger Whitecourt, Alberta ------------ If you can help,drop me an emailand I'll forward it.

As I remember, he was an elegant wordsmith and I would so love to read some of his posts again. He had a way of describing the joys of flight like few can. I greatly miss his participation on this forum. The link below is a video I made with my son that reminds me of the many of Mr. Bohay's posts describing similar experiences. http://youtu.be/D2khEtxf8ak Best to all of you, Ken Cantrell RV-6, 1975 hours & on my way to the airport. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Bob Collins Sent: Monday, April 20, 2015 8:47 AM Subject: RV-List: Eust Old-timers may remember Eustace Bohay, who was one of the early adopters of sharing RV building expertise with others online.
