My long time (40 years) friend and colleague, Chuck Myers, died a little after 8 this morning in Naples, FL. Many of you knew Chuck, and for those who didn’t, I’ll post his obituary later.
The great ones are passing from the stage.
Slightly East of New
something to do with orientation …

“The great ones are passing from the stage.”
Isn’t that the way it always is?
Larry — of course, but now it’s actually happening.

Chuck Myers, one of the Boyd LWF Mafia and military reform inner circle, a distinguished flyer, and tireless advocate for sanity in military procurement practices, passed away
this morning.
I had occasion to correspond with Chuck by email on a few occasions,
he was personable, and quick witted, and particularly had an innate
appreciation for the humor in life’s ironies.
He will be missed.

Hi Max,
I don’t have an obit yet, but here’s a site that gives some information on him: http://www.oocities.org/aerocounsel/ At one time, he held the world speed record for manned flight.
Thank you so much Chet !
The last conversation I had with Chuck, was about the prospect of using these,
as airborne decoys. Once airborne, you lose all perspective, and these become
indistinguishable from the real thing. Launch dozens, the opposition squanders their
offensive ordinance, to be then massacred by the real thing, following.
