Not many of you would know who this man is. He founded the web site J-aircraft.

He passed away recently.

His input on Japanese research into that nations aviation is second too none & is internationally known for the work he has done on this topic. I have spoken to him many times over the years on Japanese paint schemes and a number of them are in place now in AHIII through our fine skinners work.

RIP Jim. :salute
