Bob Hoover
How long did he do the Shrike routine? I swear I saw it in the late 70s
- 82 at the latest. Deadstick down in the valley at Reading, out of sight. Damn! I was a novice glider guy then but could still appreciate why twin pilots *needed* to cry when they saw that. gatt wrote: "Maule Driver" wrote in message m... Great stuff. Hoover gives me chills. Seeing that routine live is one of my most memorable flying experiences - and I was standing on the ground. Yeah, I recommend sitting down or having something soft under you. You can always tell who in the stands are pilots because they get all emotional. -c
