Rest in peace Mr. Crossfield. A nation owes you a debt of gratitude even though most of them probably never heard of you.

He was my hero when I was a kid. My Dad was a career Air Force pilot and I was very interested in those older test pilots who reminded me of my father and his friends hanging around on Fridays having a beer in flight suits talking flying. Good memories for me. R.I.P. indeed Mr. Crossfield
