Just hear the sad news of Bob Hoover’s passing. Called by many the “pilots’ pilot” or the greatest pilot to have ever lived, Hoover was the ultimate natural aviator: a peerless virtuoso.
DEP / RIP
Hoover here in happier times at the Reno Races, Sept 1974. This “American Jet” was made in Canada.
I had the privilege of seeing him and talking to him at several airshows! A real nice guy.
Lucky you. An unanimous opinion, it seems. A class act gentleman through and through. He will be missed.
