Wonderful prose from Bax

Hmm- trust good 'ol Baxter from Flying Magazine to write his own obituary - 20 years early to boot!

My favourite aviation scribe of all time, I was so sad when he passed away, rest in peace Mr Baxter.

About 15 years ago I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Mr Baxter at Camarillo airport in California.

He was flying an old german taildragger (model eludes my mind at the moment).

A gentleman of the highest order.
