Chuck Yeager.

On October 14, 2012 on the 65th anniversary of breaking the sound barrier, Yeager did it again in a McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle, out of Nellis Air Force Base at the age of 89

I have an 80 plus old pilot on my field who still teaches aerobatics.
Use to teach P-51 pilots too.
Can out fly me by miles.
