James Kent "Jimmy" Leeward (October 21, 1936 – September 16, 2011) was an American air racer, owner of the Leeward Air Ranch in Ocala, Florida, and the pilot of the heavily modified North American P-51 Mustang racing aircraft, The Galloping Ghost. He died at the 2011 Reno Air Races in a crash that also killed 10 others; an investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board blamed Leeward for "'operating at the edge of the envelope' without fully reporting and testing modifications to his plane."
