In the Book and on the video
Us "older then dirt" high altitude recon pilots (not you Huggy - yet) always appreciate a little history being published about our exploits. The attached book promotional video is a brief overview of those who flew in the Stratosphere. There are a number of us on the Airline Pilot Central discussion threads.
About 2/3rds through the video you will see a seated pilot in an green pressure suit (partially inflated) with a USAF pressure suit technician standing to the left. That's me and since I'm over 75 it does not embarrass me to brag a little.

I thought my friend might be in that picture at 1+09 and I forwarded the link to him Ftroop - thanks.
I guess he has decided to take a break from the WB flying as it had him on the road quite a bit.
