I just read online that Scott Crossfield has died. Some won't know who he is, but I do. He was the first man to fly at twice the speed of sound, after Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier in 1947.
His Cessna crashed - possibly due to bad weather - in the mountains of North Georgia.
Somewhere a lone bugler is playing "Taps" and planes are flying over with a spot open for him.
Godspeed Scott.
