And 17 years later, I was born. I was no doubt named for my late uncle Charlie Hickman, but I like to tell people that we at least share a great day, as well as salutations from time to time. Cheers!!

A monumental milestone in Aviation History. Not to mention it took a tremendous amount of skill and guts to achieve it. Well done General. A true American Hero!
