I beg your pardon, you're quite right....If you google Bob Hoover and 'rolls 707' you can see how I was mislead. Particularly, many other aviation forums have threads whicvh credit him as the guy was responsible.
I do find this strange though, as I do recall watching a documenatary about B. Hoover...where clips of him rolling the 707 were shown.
Whatever
