      That calliber of person...is diappearing...He did what few could have done or wanted to do...flying over the Hump was a challenge few would want to take...and few of those who did remain with us today.
      He seems to have had a good life...Read his book but it was many years ago...

        A good thread.

        Thanks, Chuck.

        We owe such men debts of gratitude that are beyond repayment.
