Not sure what the list covers, but my good friend Sid Baker left us in 2009. He was honored by International Aviation News in their year end round up of distinguished aviatiors who had passed away that year. His final position was Chief Pilot for Eastman Kodak. It 'nam he flew Cobras and was damn (excuse me) good.
