Hoover


I too saw Bob Hoover several times in Reno and elsewhere. He could do things with a P51 that no one else would evenattempt.
Short Story: Concord, Calif 1968/69
With my 6 year old Son was watching an Airshow when a new P501 owner while making a Low Approach got it too tigh and stalled in going through a House killing an aged women sitting in her living room.
My son and I ran to the Scene and found the P51 had come in inverted , hit the House and stopped on top of a Tree. The Pilot had his 15 year old son riding a Jump Seat. No one was Hurt. I took the statment from the Pilot the Next day in my Office in San Francisco Turns out he had just bought the aircraft and only had about 15 Hours in it.
