I had kind of a lousy experience when I have to opportunity to meet him, but you know what I decided over the years to cut him slack.
On the other hand, Bob Hoover was the most amazing man to me Personable, friendly We hung around with him For about 20 minutes, and talking to him is like talking to an old friend!
But I am glad to hear Yeager come out on the record about Neil Armstrong.
I had drinks with Bob and Tex one weekend years ago.All I can say is what a party. Good fun.Both were tops.
CY was ok to my aunt and uncle but they mentioned that he was rather diffident and therefore standoffish. That may be what you experienced.
