In Memory of Major General Theodore Franklin Mallory, III
I went to Auburn with his son, actually, I soloed his son. I only time I met him was the day his son soloed and I remember thinking he was a really nice guy. The only person that ever tipped me for being a CFI.
If it says anything about senior, his son was a great guy and a natural pilot. I think his son went on to do something other than fly for a living, I'm not sure but I think that's the case and I believe we refer those folks as the smart ones, no?
