Sabrejet Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 I do wish people would stop referring to pilots (other than USN) as "Top Gun". It straight away colours your perception of what is to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juggernut Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Wth all due respect to Mr. Broch, we have our own "centennial" fighter ace.... In the event there's anyone who doesn't recognize this guy, he's Clarence E. "Bud" Anderson who celebrated 100 years on January 13, 2022.... The greatest generation.

He and Yeager used to fly Mustangs together at Oshkosh. Quite the pair, they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
