Rip Cdr Alex Vraciu, Us Navy

The famous Navy ace has passed away aged 96.

Those that have been to Duxford will recall that the TFC F6F is painted in his colours (some reports suggest there are parts of his original aircraft included in the restoration).

 

An interesting article here, especially the part where he was almost dropped from the Navy! What might never have been...

RIP Sir, Blue Skies.
