The poem High Flight will be used.
I've collected some poems about pilots that will be read.
The service will likely be held in a hangar at the airport with his plane
being a focal point. With that in mind, are there traditional ways to
drape
a plane in black to signify the owner's death? I thought about a black
prop
cover? Would there be anything else of that nature?

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Can you get three pilots flying the same kind of airplane to fly a missing man
formation pass?



You need four, but they don't have to be the same kind of plane -- only
similar performance. From a fingertip, #3 pulls up and west, while
lead, #2 and #4 maintain their position, leaving a gap where #2 pulled
up.
