It's going to mostly be the "old timers" that know who Fargin was.

Nicely done in honor of one of the originals and he was certainly an original.  Smile

Very nice touch to honor Fargin with this forum title. Great idea.

Fargin was a long time poster and a good friend to many "back in the day" in the early days of the board.  He sadly has passed away since then.

Fargin was a longtime poster who is no longer with us and whenever the topic of the pre-game "flyby" would arise in a topic he was quick to point out the difference between a "flyby" and a "fly-over."  He was usually pretty salty about it and that always made me chuckle.  IIRC he detested the fly-over term usage vs "flyby."  

I'm sure someone with a better memory could explain it better than my attempt here ^.

He was my "wingman" at training camp for several years, and a loyal poster on this board. His loss was a significant one for this community, and this seemed like a fitting tribute since he loved to spar on the sideline.

Frank was a retired Air Force veteran, proper terminology was important to him.

He would definitely get revved up if you mentioned fly-overs.

I can't say that I blame him though. That was back when the military was pretty strict regarding such things.
