Former Air Force Captain and F-16 fighter pilot Scott O’Grady appears to have begun raising funds to run for the US Senate seat being vacated by Texas Sen Kay Bailey Hutchison.

O’Grady was made famous by his shootdown over Bosnia in 1995.  He subsequently wrote a book, Return with Honor, that described how his faith was integral to his experience.  His book was previously reviewed here.

Besides being a former fighter pilot, O’Grady is also a 2007 graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary.
