Oct 12, 1947:Went horsebackriding w/Glennis after dinner at Pancho's. We raced back. Someone had closed the gate. My horse pulled 3 gs turning to avoid it. Me? I did a few flips over the fence Not good #horse @HISTORY @TIME @POTUS #aviation #testpilot #friends @usairforce @USArmy

And it was (eventually) famous
@AFResearchLab aeromed doctor John Paul Stapp who taped you up. He ran an under-the-radar clinic@EdwardsAFB (helping locals and more...) when he wasn’t doing his test track research. Or so I hear...

Who was it then? Not a whole lot of urgent cares around Muroc at that time and the actual flight surgeon would’ve grounded him with broken ribs.

Read "Yeager".. Chuck's ribs were not officially busted.. and visiting the doc was a covert op..

Stapp knew Yeager well & tended to his family. Stapp had a reputation, like Chuck, for being a renegade w/little tolerance for red tape (& was discrete). Given lack of docs & vets in area, why wouldn’t Yeager see his nearby friend? Pic From Craig Ryan’s “Sonic Wind.” You decide.pic.twitter.com/Jt9RMZdhXn
