On this day a year ago a man pushed to the edge by the clown world went out in a blaze of glory. And the military craft following him were so amazed they didnt bother him.
Here the 10th has passed, but Skyking will remain in my mind forever.

His name was Richard Russell.
Just one year? For the first time time seems to be moving slow, thought it'd been longer
This fucked me up desu. His happy, almost enthusiastic determination to kill himself and his absolute unreachability to any argument towards landing the damn plane instead of committing suicide with it. How every word out of his mouth spelled how he was completely, irrevocably committed to killing himself. Fucked me up. Guess I'm just not depressed enough to find anything to appreciate in this.
He got to do something spectacular that he always wanted before he ended. Always worked near planes wanting to fly.
Somehow that doesn't contribute so much to the overall feels of mine.
When he said "i've played videogames before" it was heartbreaking. He felt that something was off in the world, in his live. He didn't know what it was, be he had no doubts about it. There's a Richard Rusell inside each one of us.
He went out with his boots on.
He is in our minds
Strange, I thought this way as well. One year and it’s as if I’ve always known skyking.
I think about him every now and again, what a legend. RIP.
faggot wh killed himself, probably ssri induced psychosis
It feels like it's been decades. There is just something magnificent about his story.
He managed to get the grand finish he dreamed of.
rip skyking
i can't fucking believe it's been a year already
A man who really experienced true freedom. May he find his peace in the skies.
desu it's not yet
I put a video on "planned" to be posted 2 minutes before he took off with the plane

This song is what I play to footage of him on his journey out of this world
flying is maybe one of the greatest inventions humanity (white guys) have ever come up with
Probably one of the only few times I've ever cried. Rest in peace bud.
What a legend, a true hero to clown world.
Worth pointing out that his actions have probably made us all safer by encouraging the airliners to tighten their security.
