His book FOREVER FLYING is a great read!  I would loan my book out but it has a nice personal message from Bob Hoover to me so it stays on the shelf.

He also had an interesting battle with the FAA over his airshow flying. Google it.
DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT GROWING OLDER, IT'S A PRIVILEGE DENIED TO MANY.

Yes Australia ......let him fly at our international Airshow at Avalon, some years back....he was professional, safe, and the best at what he does...certainly deserving of a pilots licence. I dont think this went well with the FAA....however CASA were very happy . (CASA is the Aussie version of your FAA)

'Forever Flying' is his story and its a MUST read for any one interested in Flying.
