The Brown Condor of Ethiopia.

I was going thru some old papers and came across a really yellowed newspaper page, tattered and folded. The Plain Dealer Tuesday August 23 1988 page 11Ae. The article was about John Charles Robinson, aviator. An extraordinary airman dubbed "the Brown Condor". He leaped off the ground in Mississippi and didn't land until he made history. Here is a pic from the net.

 Check out his story, pretty cool. The Brown Condor of Ethiopia, John C. Robinson was personal pilot of Emperor Haile 

Selassie and established an Ethiopian airline. Inspiring no doubt.
