M2 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 It's a shame, but the man did leave a helluva legacy and will be making people laugh for generations... Godspeed, sir, you were one of the best! Cheers! M2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKopack Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 And before acting, he had enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force at the age of 17 and was trained as an aerial gunner, but was too young by the end of WWII to have deployed overseas.

TreeA10 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 There are numerous stories about him floating around the airline community. He would stick his head in the cockpit and say something like "Good luck men, we're all counting on you" or "Don't eat the fish." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
