Fascinating obit. I remember the ejection very well - we were called in to the office in Bangkok when the news came out but there was nothing we could do to help. Some time later we night-stopped at a N.Burmese (Myanmar) Airfield, Myktila, and parked next to a Grumman Goose. This was the aircraft , and pilot, used to pick up Tony. Aircraft operation was, to say the least, unconventional !
