Photographer's remark
(17.9.2011, 22:58 CET)
On the 16th September the Warbirds Community lost a very good friend. Jimmy Leeward sadly died when competing in the National Air Racing Championship at Reno, Nv. I had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy at Oshkosh this year and working with him on the ramp. He was a true professional and a very understanding of the questions being asked.
This is my tribute to Jimmy Leeward, "God Speed, Sir!"
