Came all the way down just for you?


That and to fly my HARV simulator. The event had been built up for weeks

at
Dryden, as Yeager has a penchant for cursing long hairs. You see, my
simulator had backed out the GE flight control computer in 6 months,
something the Navy had spent many $millions and years of effort, to no
success. Later HARV was tabbed to Pax River, using parts from Hornet #3.
Martha Evans wound up before Congress and the event pretty well made

Myer's
career.

You're an idiot...


Yeager went and talked bad about my simulator and the pilots determined

that
they were not impressed by my shoebox. The direct funding generated by my
efforts continue to bring direct Navy funding to Dryden.

Yeager came all the way to Dryden simulation to dress me down for

having
hair down to my ass and then ran away.





But, John, in this very newsgroup on 8/30/01 you said:
"Yeager was nice to me." :-))

We just never know when to believe you.
JK
