I met Chuck Yeager at a farmer party in Delano, CA some years ago. Didnt get to spend time with him, but every body knew he was arriving. His private plane just about clipped the telephone lines as he buzzed the venue. Shortly after Ernest and Julio Gallo arrived in their private helicopter, seems they were providing the wine. The party featured a spit roasted pig, goat and calf. There were HUNDREDS of people there, including a bunch from Edwards and very few leftovers of ANYTHING.
Chuck reminded me a bit of Ted Nugent. Very focused, hahaha
