18/08 - Famous aviation historian Georges Lecomte has passed away.

George Lecomte, the famous Belgian aviation historian has passed away. Over the years, Georges was responsible for a huge number of publications and his certainly was considered as "the" authority on Belgian aviation. No serious author on the subject could neglect to ask Georges' advice, which he always gave full of enthusiasm. The "Belgian Wings" Website could benefit largely from Georges' expertise and even up to a few weeks ago updates could be made thanks to his precious advice. Belgian Wings and BelgianAviationNews express their condolences to family and relatives.
