He was born in 1922.

Too old to pass a medical, I presume?


His license to perform was pulled in 1992 when he turned 70, but he got
it back after a lawsuit. He stopped performing in air shows in 2000.

Haven't seen him a while, but as far as I know, Bob's still living out
in Palos Verdes California.
