"That's a stupid instrument, if you don't know your angle of attack you shouldn't be flying..." I liked that.

General Chuck Yeager passed away last night on December 7th 2020 at 97 yrs old. A True American Hero who became an Ace Fighter Pilot Flying a P-51B Mustang and a few months later He was Flying The P-51D Mustang in which He could really out maneuver anything The Luftwaffe could throw at Him. I've heard Him say a couple times that Clarence "Bud" Anderson (Triple Ace) was the Best Fighter Pilot He has ever seen. (Bud is still living) General, You Are Going to be Missed up there in Heaven with Your Real Wings. RIP My Hero Brother.

This technology (F-15 etc.) was made possible by the courage and pioneering work of General Yeager. Incredible. Living legend.

Rest in peace Sir. You and your achievements will not be forgotten.

"the secret of his success is that he always managed to live to fly another day" , General Chuck Yeager is already in the history of the aviation, a great pilot and a great man.

General Charles Yeager, Rest in Peace in the air.

Chuck Yeager... a legendary pilot, and an authentic ww2 hero....thank you for your service to our beloved country the USA.....

The pilot must have been proud to fly a legendary pilot in the rear. It is truly an honor for him...

Even the boarding ladder has been painted with at least four coats of that shiny new 'Flanker' Aggressor color. Those aircraft have never looked better. You couldn't tell that 25 years earlier, I was standing out on the same flightline working on that very same tail number in 'Eagle AMU' as an EagleKeeper. Shout out to 'Flanker AMU'! Take care of my jets! Keep those F-15's flying forever! Rest in peace, Chuck. You earned it.

There will never be one like him. I remember him once saying "sound of a jet engine is music to my ears". In my opinion aviation is incomplete without him in it. God bless you General please keep keep decorating skies.

Gen Yeager, you were a legend. You will always be remembered. RIP, SIR.

General Yeager is truly a great American hero. He is an inspiration to many. I was happy to see that he made this flight.

General Chuck Yeager - awesome real hero, and an 89 years old EAGLE with balls of Titanium !!!

General, you are a man who commands great respect, and your steadfast courage is an absolute inspiration to us all, to be such fine men.

Chuck Yeager leaves a serious legacy in the history of military aviation, particularly for the Air Force!

This video never gets old and after everything Brig. Gen. Yeager did for our country not only flying and fighting in WW II, and 3 tours in Vietnam but also his most historic and memorable accomplishment, breaking the sound barrier, and he couldn't have picked a better aircraft to fly his 65th anniversary commemoration flight in, I personally love the F-15D!

This is a huge honour, to be ale to share this with General Yeager. Brings happy tears to my eyes.

It's an honor just to see Yeager in this video.

He inspired so many of us . Always a hero

John Stack of NACA risked decades of his career on supersonic flight and the X program. It was not a certainty that the sound barrier could be broken, many said it couldn't be done. He was a true hero that Yeager never acknowledges. Yeager knew when he got in that X1 Bell rocket that he would be hailed as a hero for breaking the sound barrier.

Even brave heroes get old... Bless you Chuck Yeager, you did a hell of a job.

You will always be my hero General Chuck Yeager. Its was one of my biggest thrill in my life to have met you Sr. Never get enough of watching videos of your exploits. A man's man. Rest in piece sr.

Way to go Chuck! You're an inspiration to all of us who fly.

Not just a fighter pilot but an inspiration, he has to be one of the best pilots ever, from WW2 to breaking the sound barrier to the Korean War, to helping out Pakistan in the 1971 Indo Pak wars and much more! What an amazing pilot.

I am SO privileged to have met you, Rest In Peace, Sir!!

RESPECT to you Chuck !! You have been an inspiration to me.

Gen. Chuck Yeager is my idol! He has done so much for the modern world and as had and still has a such positive way to look at things. And he is also a Rolex guy :) And damn it must have been a honor to fly with Yeager!

Not enough respect for this man can be given to him. Thank you for you service

One Amazing person; supported by one amazing group of people! The right man, the right team; THE RIGHT STUFF..!!

I see him on the local roads in his old pick-up from time to time. Always makes me smile, to drive behind an American hero.

if you haven't yet, read his biography. A true inspiration for all pilots and enthusiasts

Человек-легенда! Крепкий мужик! The man is a legend! Strong man!

RIP and Godspeed sir!

Age 89 and still fit for supersonic, now thats a real pilot!

Chuck Yeager - King of the air!

Rest In Peace General Chuck Yeager.

From the Bell X-1 bullet to modern day jet fighters F-15, F-18... what a life, he's surely the " best pilot You ever saw ! "

Chuck the F-15 is my favorite Fighter also! Great video! Good to see him up and flying!!

He inspired me to learn to fly. A true American hero.

His book is really good. It was the first audiobook i ever listened to . And i had all of the chuck yeager flight sims . I loved them all.

General Chuck Yeager was possibly the most awesome American of all time.

he got in there faster and safer than many 20year olds these days could

I am an American Airman. I am a warrior. I have answered my nation's call. I am an American Airman. My mission is to fly, fight, and win. I am faithful to a proud heritage, A tradition of honor, And a legacy of valor. I am an American Airman, Guardian of freedom and justice, My nation's sword and shield, It's sentry and avenger. I defend my country with my life. I am an American Airman: Wingman, leader, warrior. I will never leave an Airman behind, I will never falter, And I will not fail. RIP Chuck Yeager! The Last American Hero

What a legend. RIP General Yeager.

This is a "bitter sweet" recognition of a WW-II Mustang pilot who later broke the sound barrier in the Bell X-1 (or something similar), and now he's riding behind a guy who is piloting the plane and who probably wasn't even born when Chuck flew over the Rhine in 1945! I mean no criticism about this posting...I love it, it just makes me sad to see how we all age! As to bravery: chuck had more than "titanium balls"; he should go to Valhalla on the wings of a Valkyrie!

General Yeager is an inspiration to every Pilot in the US & it's wonderful to see how well he's doing at age 89! Bless you Sir & thank you for your contributions to aviation. I wish your wonderful wife was still by your side. Y'all sacrificed so much early on in life.

Rest in peace, General Yeager.

‘What? No! This isn’t my last flight!’ 👌

89-yrs. and sharp as a razor!!! "You asked the most important thing I did..." "What I am, the Air Force made me..." Lol - He's seems annoyed at the stupid questions...

The Right Stuff all the way.

, General Yeager a truly great American. They broke the mould after they created him ,Thanks from the land down under .

He is the first American Who fly Mig 15

rip gen yeager glad to have had you in my life as a kid

Even Chuck Norris needs a hero.

Rest In The Lord's Peace General Chuck Yeager. A Great Man. You are truly missed Sir. SALUTE

fantastic, finally someone who deserves the guest hop.

The Right Stuff.... legend amongst all aviators!

Salute, General

This man has make history!!! Respect

Here in Edwards AFB base housing watching this, how fitting.

One of my heros!! Rest In Peace Sir Thank you for your service

it's very great! thank you to the US, the US air-force and most to chuck yeager! greetings from germany! hb

Aviation is not where it is today without the contribution of general Yeager. Guy like him only come once in a 100 years.

Hero ..Salute to him.

A National Treasure of All Time in Aeronautical History!! General Chuck Yeager 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

If I'm not mistaken the F-15 (Eagle) has never been downed in air to air combat .. one of the unsung planes of it's era an a man among men when it comes to flight.

Chuck Yeager, a flying legend and a real gent............Eric ' Winkle' Brown, a flying legend and a real gent Two flyers who helped forge the aviation world of today; split by the Pond but united in exceptional achievement. Hail the Flying Ceasers!

Es un auténtico héroe, el primer piloto derribado en Francia que volvió a volar en Europa luego de escapar a España, esa es una historia tan fascinante como su vuelo rompiendo la barrera del sonido. Lean su biografía (en la revista Selecciones de 1983 "aventuras de un piloto de pruebas").

Alguém que desafiou o desconhecido e venceu. Simplesmente o melhor!🙏👏🙏👏🙏

A living legend! I have always wished that NASA would have at the very least sent him up in the Shuttle. I feel that he rightly deserved that trip.

Un personnage qui mérite d'être écouté. Une mentalité exemplaire. A lire l'histoire ça vie.

Rest in peace General Yeager. Thank you for everything you have done in aviation and in service to our country.

Gen. Yeager W W 2 ace , flew the X1 and a great soldier. MAN IS A LEGEND. rip Gen. Yeager

General Right Stuff

A True Legend. RIP Sir... 🙏

General Yeager used a very classy remark re the X-1 going through the sound barrier. He used the term "we", reflective of the team effort involved to go past mach1. A very Classy Gentleman..

God bless and Rest In Peace General A truly great hero for today’s kids to look up too

True American badass...Thank you, Sir.

Muito legal ver o carinho e admiração que a USAF tem com o primeiro homem a romper a barreira do som.

A true American hero. Doing something extremely dangerous for the very first time where any mistake could have ended his life. There was no one to call for help because no one knew. He accepted these risks and challenges and his accomplishments prepared the US in its quest for travel into outer space among other advancements in aerospace. Good by, Col Yeager. Your breed will be sorely missed.

CHUCK é dos pilotos nais respeitados no mundo. Sua historia é a historia que qualquer piloto almejaria. O filme "OS ELEITOS", retrata parte da sua história. Muitos de seus recordes não foram derrubados até hoje.

BG Yeager earned that star just as so many who gave their all to include at Panchos.

Chuck I read your book and took it to heart. It has helped me look at myself and given me some courage to keep living. Sometimes that pain of living makes me not want to live. The book also has made me realize how much a looser I am. At least I know in part I was born at the wrong time in history, and that is in part the reason I am nothing. I remember what you said, you were born at the right time. This has caused me to look at other great men in history when they were born. They too had the greatest chance for greatness because of the time they were born. My dad because of the time he was born had his moment of greatness with Audie Murphy. But I have 2 daughters and they look up to me and they are the only reason I keep going. I know how crushed they would be if I am not around. But men like you Chuck, give us who are weak a backbone to lean on. Thank you for that.

Watching him enter the cockpit, all I could think of was him closing it with a broom handle. Shaking his hand once was the thrill of a lifetime. 👍

That question 'Is this your last flight?' really sound like an insult.

Esse cara é uma lenda Como Brasileiro também, nunca esquecerei oque ele fez para a aviação, rest in peace 🇧🇷🤝🇺🇲

Chuck used to come in and chat with me at my work in aviation. He was just all around a great person. Loved fly fishing. Outdoors . Years later i pinned the gears on the tigershark and put the ladder up for him. And he remembered me. I got to do a photoshoot with him But good that no one noticed i burnt my arm on a hot pt tube. Ill be dammed if i cried with chuck around.

He looks 25 again after that flight while they were interviewing him. haha

The REAL Top Gun..and from my WV❤👍

My favorite pliot ...we salute you sir !

An old warrior .....checks out the new fighting bird

Chuck Yeager is the boss!!

Probably the US's only 89 year old to ever fly again. Yeager helped design and test so many aircraft from Korea all the way up to including the f-22. Amazing man.

Colonel Yager, Generations owe you sir! The word BadAss was invented for you!

Awesome what a great american icon and hero I salute you sir with all the respect a civilian can give rip🙏❤🇺🇸

RIP, general.

What a legend and truly an American treasure.

In the time of that video, I can only imagine all the affirmative action spots were in place to ensure a display of diversity within the Air Force base. From the airman driving the vehicle down the flight line, the pilot, the Control Tower, and base commander.

Nellis air force base is a beautiful base, got the luxury of setting up and doing air shows there the last 3 years and meeting so many pilots and as a former pilot myself it's a dream being there

That was such a cool tribute to a great man and Patriot.
