I remember Monguse introducing me to Beebop as well as Bearcat. Both helped greatly with a couple of my video projects. Losing another long standing and respected member of the community is really sad news. 

Rip  Beebop ?

 He carried that positive attitude everywhere he went and the fact that he will not be around to share himself with us anymore deeply saddens me. 

 

Hi Wheels. Thank you for letting us know. 

 

Beebop hosted for our sister squadron the Hell Hounds.

 

That’s many years ago now. Flying with Arthur and the guys out west was a pleasure reserved for Christmas and summer holidays as they came online around 1 a.m. euro time. but it was always worth it.

 

My sincere condolences to Arthur’s family and many friends in music and aviation.

Never really know what to say when I keep seeing these fellow simmers from way back from Forgotten Battles days passing, I remember his icon well, a regular on Ubi forums...so my condolences to his family and take to the blue sky Beebop...all the best.

Arthur helped me with several projects going back to the very early days of Forgotten Battles.  I'll miss him.  Now I feel an emptiness as it seems the IL2 community is lesser without him.

RIP Beebop. A name that has been around for a very long time. Only had contact with him at M4T a few times, but he will be missed.

So sad to hear of this. I always enjoyed his skin hacks. I hope for eternal CAVU for you Beebop.

[DN308]

Really sad.. I had few but very nice chats with him and wasn’t aware of his health.

 

[[FF]Vihurah]

i remember the days i used to fly coop sorties with Beebop and others years and years ago on 1946. It saddens me to learn he passed.

 

my condolences to his friends and family, he was a good man. RIP

[EAF19_Marsh]

I didn't know him, but...

 

[jollyjack]

About 2 years ago Arthur helped me out quite a bit as starting newbie skinner.

F.i. he sent me a nice personal collection of emblems, logo's etc.

With excuses to boot that they were all still 2k reso.

Maybe an idea for a project to rework them for 4? Post the result somewhere in his honor?

[[DBS]TH0R]

Had a pleasure working with him over few missions in IL-2 '46. Sad to hear this... ?

 

May you rest in peace, Beebop. My sincere condolences to his family.
