Touchdown! Greaser!
Some people claim those lies are alternative facts.Exactly.
And those demons drove him to be a compulsive liar out of touch with reality.

His old avatar photo-take from "aboove"-showed a little girl (would be at least a teen by now, possibly an adult) in the car with him. Was that his daughter? Doers anyone here know about her, and feel comfortable sharing?
He had an exwife, lived in North Texas at one point-is that correct?
Henning had many demons running around inside his head, something for which I don't think he ever received any sort of help.
Has anyone actually confirmed that he passed, seen an obituary or talked with his family? This is a pretty long thread based only on another post from another forum. With his tendency to lie or exaggerate are we sure he actually passed?

I believe he was in the Seattle area. If he owned property, with or without a will it will have to be disposed of through probate, so a death notice will be published in a newspaper somewhere at some point as a notice to creditors.
Nothing posted here has said that. Just speculation.Isn't it true that his death was a suicide? It's hard to fake that one.

I believe Henning was living on Bainbridge Island. At least he was last I spoke with him about a year ago.
Like Ive said,I’ve met many a PoAer in my early years, but not Henning. My life may be a bit poorer be cause of it
Yeah. Once in a while I come across those threads and reminisce on the earlier years. The tone of the board was a bit different. I do wonder where some of them are at today. Thanks for digging those threads up.Dang, it seems like ages ago. So many people in those threads who have just drifted off, myself included.
Better or worse?Yeah. Once in a while I come across those threads and reminisce on the earlier years. The tone of the board was a bit different. I do wonder where some of them are at today. Thanks for digging those threads up.
Yup....I went to a couple of those RDU BBQ meet ups years ago....and I can only remember a few of those pictured.Yeah. Once in a while I come across those threads and reminisce on the earlier years.

Na, when cowboy was called on his **** he disappeared. Henning would have doubled down. Gary Shelby and I had dinner with Henning here in Philly. Let’s Say it was an experience that I’m happy my wife did not attend. The family with the young kids in the next booth could not get out of there fast enough. The best Henning story and one that Anymouse did not include was when he flew a corpse at night in a Cessna. Either a 172 or 182. I laughed so hard I cried. Not sure if that was on POA or over on the old Red ( AOPA) board but it was one of the funniest things I’ve read on either. No idea how he flew west but I’m sure those that knew him and read his posts will keep him a live in their memories, I mean how could anyone forget.Henning was cowboypilot. Discuss . . .

Dang, this is some sucky news I didn't expect to read today. He was an interesting cat, that's for sure.
@Bill I was surprised by your comment and had to check my archives on that. All I've got is a terrible picture into the setting sun of Bob Gerace's and Henning's heads flying us in the 310 back to LZU after a Raleigh BBQ meetup. It was dated Feb 23, 2007! There was another red board member in the back seat too. Can't remember his name, but he was a doctor from TX who flew a Bonanza V-tail I believe (ya, what a cliche, I know). I managed to find the thread on that (https://pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/henning-at-raleigh-durham-all-rdu-ers.12262/)
I think the first RDU BBQ meet you made it to was later in the year: https://pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/bbq-at-rdu-the-real-thread.17105/

@denverpilot Nate, good to see you here, too. How's it hangin' ?
If you can DM me the obit, I'll post it. I don't think anyone here has seen it yet and google didn't reveal it to me.Hello POA,
I am not a pilot, but I stumbled upon Henning on Reddit some months ago and found him to be such an interesting/sometimes disturbing character that I ended up following him around for a bit.
He mentioned sometime last Fall that he was looking to "be gone" (or similar verbiage) by Halloween, 2023. Looks like he held on a few months longer.
I realized this morning that he hadn't posted in a month or so, so I took to Google to find answers and sure enough, found his obit and other Facebook posts.
Being a new account, I can't post links. But his username on Reddit was "Wise_Investment_9089". reddit/u/wise_investment_9089 should get you there.
Not sure if this is meaningful or helpful to anybody but he was interesting enough to fascinate me for a while. His posts/comments on Reddit are definitely indicative of his mental state.
My condolences to anyone who knew him personally.
His Facebook page has a large gallery of photos.Hello POA,

That's unfortunate, because based on past Henning events no one is really certain that he is dead. Hence the interest in an actual obituary.Sorry, I should have clarified that I haven't found an official obit; was referencing the various posts on Facebook announcing his passing in the groups of which he was a member.
I knew two people who did not want obits, and so none were published. So lack of one does not necessarily mean Henning is alive. Maybe there's such a thing as death notices in his home state or city.That's unfortunate, because based on past Henning events no one is really certain that he is dead.

A local funeral home might have a notice, even if there isn’t a funeral service.I knew two people who did not want obits, and so none were published. So lack of one does not necessarily mean Henning is alive. Maybe there's such a thing as death notices in his home state or city.

I was there for at least one of these! I met Henning a few times over the years. Interesting guy with real bonafides.
Well, if he's not dead and still Henning, he'll pop up somewhere.
Last known (approximate) address?
I noticed the FB post said his boat was “on the hard” at Port Townsend. That’s where Any said he was - on his boat.
