I read every word that I could find of Duke's writing, and learned a great deal from it. He was a talented writer as well as a tremendously experienced pilot: in writing these honest, raw accounts of his flying adventures he has enabled many of us to feel the same wind on our cheeks that he felt. And a part of him lives on, in the memories he has passed on as gifts to thousands of us across the world. Duke, I salute you, and thank you, Sir, for your lessons. Fair weather!
