I just learned of Charles' death, and I am greatly saddened. He was a profound scholar who made a major contribution to the study of aviation history, and his works have had a lasting impact on the field. Truly, he is, and will be, missed.

We're missing Charlie very much. He was such a brilliant man who loved his family and friends. Always in quest of knowledge, he asked questions and listened to the answers. What will we do without him?
