Stony, Muck,

Being stationed here at Edwards AFB I can atest to this.  Many people here have met him in person and say the exact same thing.  Who knows maybe its old age maybe its just the popularity.  I've never met him so I cant say anything personally.  BUT, we do have our air show in two weeks and he's supposed to be there

to all of his accomplishments though

Whatever you do, dont tell Chuck Yeager that you play combat flight games on the computer.  He will eat you away like acid just with the scowl alone.  Ive seen it and fortunately it was the guy in front of me.  When they scooped that other fella up off the floor and placed him into a small bucket I just walked past that mess up to the General, real straight and arrow like and said "Sir, would you kindly sign my book, Sir!

Alls well that goes well.....hehe

(FWIW I tend to agree with old Yeager on the game thing)

I can just imagine poor stony :eek:
