Ha ha, no. That's Earthquake McGoon. Maybe that's not the best picture of him. I know you know who he was. He was an ex-US Airman who died ferrying supplies to the French at Dien Bien Phu. He was a colorful character who flew for the US during WWII then remained in Asia to ferry supplies to Chiang Kai Chek during the Chinese civil war.

Here is painting of his final flight by Jeffrey Bass.
