IMHO, Yaeger's life is already blotted after what he said immediately after
Scott Crossfield's accident. So many options, so many good opportunities to
say good things about a great man, but he chose the tasteless route. Pity.

I couldn't agree more, and this was just one more nail in the coffin
that defines why I can't take Yeager.

Yeager came out here to an Air Show at Wanaka where he was asked by a
young TVNZ reporter as to how he could take up flying .
The reply was so arrogant and insulting Yeager suddenly was not at the
Air Show.
