  1. I was privileged to see Mr. Hoover in his Mustang at an airshow back in the mid-'60s. You're right: that man could do things in a Mustang that I'm CERTAIN amazed and mystified the airplane's creators.

    Well deserved.

  2. I read somewhere that he was the only man alive who could do a sixteen point roll in a Mustang...........and actually hit all sixteen points!
