Bob Hoover was the best pilot I have ever seen fly at any airshow or on film. I hope I can find his scheme for my F-86.

I had a chance to see Bob Hoover speak in a forum......Warbirds in Review....at Oshkosh last year. He was Awesome. They had a tribute to Bob last year there as well. Several top name pilots did Bob Like demos in several of the planes Bob performed in. F-86, P-51, Saberliner, Shrike, Etc. It was said those pilots practiced for months to gain the precision that Bob commonly displayed. Even then they communicated that these were not intended to be exact recreations of his demos.....cause no one could do what he did.
