Aviation legend Evelyn Bryan Johnson of Morristown died Thursday afternoon.
Johnson was 102 and was known as "Mama Bird." Johnson was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame in Dayton, Ohio in 2007. She is said to have logged more flight hours, trained more pilots and given more Federal Aviation Administration exams than any other pilot on the planet.
I had the pleasure of working with Johnson in 2005 for American Profile.  She was a great lady and fun to be around for the day and to meet.  My prayers are with the family.
