Sqn Ldr Neville Duke
Header says it all.
Duke was famous for, among other things, holding the world air speed record.
In 1953 he achieved 727.63 mph flying a Hawker Hunter.
I met Sqn Ldr Neville Duke at RIAT last year, what a fine man !
I am sure many on here and in the aviation fraternity would like to pass on sincere Condolences.
I for one will drink a toast this evening to a TRUE Flying legend !
