    Gone West: Robert L. "Mouse" Shaw, fighter pilot and author

    It is my sad duty to report that Bob Shaw (callsign: "Mouse"), US Navy fighter pilot and the author of "Fighter Combat: Tactics and maneuvering", has passed away after a difficult fight with cancer.

    I had the great pleasure of meeting Mouse, hanging out with him, and attending several of his lectures at a variety of flightsim conventions. He was a Good Guy. Very friendly and approachable, as well as an expert in the field of fighter tactics. I will miss him terribly.
