Always a sheer joy and an honor to have @GenChuckYeager with us last night ... Our greatest aviator and at 96 he is as feisty as ever. God Bless him ...pic.twitter.com/KI8cW3oz2W

A member of my family from WV used to compete with Chuck years ago to see who could fly the fastest. “Tick” Lilly died when his aircraft exploded. Don’t know if Chuck remembers him but he is part of my family history. Have a wonderful Christmas Joe.

Never competed with anyone from NACA. He was not the third to fly faster than sound.

Hello General Yeager. Howard “Tick” Lilly was a young test pilot from West Virginia who died in 1948 when his D-558 aircraft exploded and crashed. He was 31. He flew for NACA as I believe you did at that time. Article attached. Thought you may have know him. Relative of mine.pic.twitter.com/BGaQylzDuW
