I've been doing some thinking...
When I die I want an R/C airplane flyover at my funeral. Maybe five or six ships in the missing man formation. I want my plane to pull up out of the fomation in a loop then plow straight into the ground full throtle... Balsa scraps could be scooped up and thrown on top of the casket.
Can you guys arrange that for me?

HA HA HA!
Now THATS what I call a funeral!! I couldnt help but laugh at the visual I had in my head.... HA!
I thought it would be neat to be cremated, then have my parents place my ashes in one of my big planes, get my best flyign buddy to take off and head out over the woods (I live in the middle of nowhere) and let the plane fly off... But my family has a more "traditional" approach to death and it probably wont happen (not that I am hoping to go any time soon!).
Man, thats still making me laugh!

You better get that written up and signed by a lawyer. My Dad always wanted to be cremated and his ashes put in the cattle gaurd at the entry of our ranch (the big hole with a grate over it to keep the cattle in). He said that way the would always know the comings and goings of the farm. He got cremated but my mom burried them. My Brother and I have agreed that when my Mom dies we will dig him up and spread half his ashes in the cattle gaurd. and leave the other half.
I have a Harley that I would like to be painted with my ashes mixed in the paint (with some left over for the eventual wreck). I have never heard of anyone doing this and like the idea of my ashes going 120mph down the highway or possibly doing a wheelie. Now that's living (or dying)!

I am a license funeral director/embalmer in the state of TN. Also a very avid funfly pilot. So if you need any help getting cremated or crashing your plane for you. I am can help you out either way. LOL

Ok you get my business. Just don't embalm me before you cremate me. They did that to my Dad and it took 3 relatives to keep me from doing something to the funeral director that would have forced him to decide between cremation and embalming for himself.
