A sad news. Pierre Henri Clostermann, French fighter pilot and author, passed away this afternoon.
Probably many of you have read his reference book, 'Le Grand Cirque', translated also to Rumanian. I have, in my youth, and it greatly impressed me. May he rest in Peace. Gen. Dénes |

I remember reading his book when I was a schoolboy, and it really impressed me. May his soul fly far away into the sky.

Wars come and go, but heroes are eternal. He will meet now his coleagues, maj. Muchotte and others, and they will fly yet in our hearts.
