Was not he the last living top scorer of any nation fighting in WWII?
RIP

Re: Ján Režňák passed away...

I had the chance to meet him as a youngster at my beginnings of interest in aviation history and it made an impression. Met him since then few times, kind man, bright. Always ready to smile and make a joke but also share his memory on THOSE times. Let there be always sun shining on his eternal flight! RIP!
