I don't think I've ever seen that John Wayne movie. Time for a movie night.
Mar 26, 1951 Edwards AFB Filming began on lakebed for RKO’s film "Jet Pilot", starring John Wayne & Janet Leigh. An XF-92A was painted to simulate a “MiG-23.” I flew the aerial stunt scenes "anonymously" . #EdwardsAFB #MiG23 @usairforce #aerial #stunts http://www.chuckyeager.org/news/jet-pilot-march-26-1951/ …

One of my hero’s too —as a child and as an adult. Thank you, General Yeager, for being such a fine role model to America’s young people.

General Yeager, I grew up in California in the 1950s hearing about your test flights often. One of the heroes of my childhood. Thank you very much.
