Dec 12, 1953: I flew MACH 2.44, then tumbled on all 3 axes, knocked out, came to in inverted spin, kicked into a spin & landed the plane. Had to go give a talk in LA. Before flight had been up early duck huntin'. Long day. Here's the audio http://www.chuckyeager.com/x-1a-flight-audio … @HISTORY @TIME
