I think if you've been to Pancho's everyday after flying test planes, you've got an idea of what might be too much.
Especially after watching friends auger in, once in a while.
Loved you book general!
Q fr @kanduthedog Curious-what are your thoughts on Gen. Robin Olds? I only knew him in his last few yrs but seemed like a pretty nice guy. A: He was. Drank too much but gave a great acceptance/thank you speech at his Nat'l Aviation Hall of Fame induction in 2002 @NAHF @NASM @THR

A hero of mine. Bad ass pilot, bad ass mustache and West Point football player and a good one at that.

I have heard the same from others who knew him but he was still the same towards the end: Enjoyed a cocktail but always gracious and appreciative. Thanks Chuck.

Or maybe he drank just the right amount, with all due respect, Sir?

I never saw him over indulging, just having fun with his buds and engaging everyone around him. I am absolutely in awe of our heros like him and Gen. Yeager and learn so much when I have an opportunity for a conversation.

@GenChuckYeager Like you, Robin Olds was a highly skilled pilot with tremendous passion. Like you, he loved our country and was guided by an unmatched set of core values. We can only hope that your lives serve to inspire an similar group of aerospace heroes and risk takers.
