Come on, leave MileHigh alone. Are you going to tell me Chuck Yeager was a crap pilot. The guy was raised up in the hills of West Virginia and entered the army as a private. Was a mechanic for years. Not all, but a majority of the book smart guys I have flown with aren't very good sticks. Like my dad always said. (Air Force test pilot) "You can read that damn checklist into the ground". "I'm going to get us home". Now I'm not here to put any of you guys down. But that guy, that you insult, might be a hell of a pilot.
