And with a real engine not a firework up its arse.

I'm a great admirer of Yeager but I wish somebody would tell him that they were not the first with the all flying tailplane.

I am not really qualified to have a opinion on this subject, but I have read a article by a person in a position to know these things that described someone not a million miles from here as the best fighter Pilot in the RAF.
No names no packdrill as you military chaps say.
