Know the event well, as well as the guy who did it :-)

You know him? Cool!

I loved "Jet Age Test Pilot"!

Actually "knew him" would be more accurate. Tex died back in 98.
Great guy, and he pulled off one hell of a stunt back there with the
prototype Dash 80! We always kidded him about it looking like a "whale"

His son still does interviews about it. His son looks to be social

Had a Q&A once as a guest speaker on aviation with a troop of Cub Scouts.
One of them asked me what Orville and Wilber Wright were REALLY like!!!!!!
