Vitaly was born in Leningrad, USSR in 1969. After
leaving school he studied at College and graduated first, as an engineer in
quantum electronics and a second time as a software developer. He then worked
for software development companies, including Daimler Benz Aerospace, where he
was involved in the manufacture of an onboard GPS receiver to facilitate
automated passenger aircraft landings. At that time he was taking flying
lessons in a two-seater light aircraft near Saint Petersburg. Vitaly's initial
plan was to graduate from these courses in 3 years and obtain a small aircraft
pilot license. But after graduating the first year he moved to the USA where he
now lives with his wife, 5 year daughter and 9 year stepson. Vitaly's main
hobbies are mostly aircraft-related, including aircraft history and modelling
and hopes to continue flying lessons some day. He also enjoys photography,
especially - wildlife and nature. He blames his wife for the acquaintance with
EAW. It was 1999 and they were in a local CompUSA store when she picked the
very last box with the game from the store counter with the question: "Darling,
could it be the game you might be interested in?". He recalls that his responce
was: "perhaps, although the graphics don't impress me, judging from the box
advertizement." Anyway, they bought it, and as it turned out, it was 'THE'
game, compared only to AOE. He says there's something magical in EAW as you can
leave it for some time, but you'll be back for sure, and want to play it again
and again, and work on its improvement. Or could it be because of the great EAW
community? Perhaps. But this game and everything around it never stops to amaze
him! |
Vitaly's EAW aka is 'Mailpin'. Vitaly has been following EAW
for some time and is involved in various modifications for the EAW community.
He has his files available for downloading at his pages on the
Tally-Ho Site web site. |

|
Wallace Wood (no relation to the famed Mad
Magazine cartoonist that he know of). Wallace attended the San Jose State
University as a journalism graduate. He then went on to work for the San Jose
Mercury/News as a reporter/stringer, then briefly for the Sunnyvale
Standard/Mt.View Register-Leader (now defunct) before spending 16 years at the
Santa Cruz Sentinel, a small California daily. Wallace is now a 'retired'
newsman and lives in Santa Cruz on the coast, once described as a "seedy little
resort town" by the L.A. Times when the university opened there in 1965. Last
year the town briefly topped the "Most Expensive Places to Live in the U.S."
Wallace rents what he terms as a quarter-million dollar hovel. He's loved
aircraft since he was a child. Recently, at Hammer Field in Fresno, he was
almost killed riding his bicycle when he was hit by a car while watching
aircraft and not watching the road. EAW is a much safer option. |
Wallace's EAW aka is 'Wudpecker'. He is a member of the
European Air War WWII flight sim community and is active at the EAW forums, as
he puts it, with those 'wonderful folk from around the world'. |
