Charlie Freehling and Matt Rodina on the G-73 Mallard. VISS Mallards operated with either the PT-6 turbine or PW R1340's.
Matthew E. Rodina, Jr.
1944 - 2019
Matt may have been a financial executive, working for a number of large corporations but his love was aviation. He was a recognized aviation historian with a special interest in the Grumman Mallard. When Virgin Island Seapalne Shuttle started up in 1981, he knew he needed to be part of it.
I never met Matt but we talked on the phone and he gave me guidance on questions regarding the Mallards.
