According to the first pilot to exceed the speed of sound, flying ace Chuck Yeager, born on this date in 1923, If you can walk away from a landing, its a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, its an outstanding landing.
Yeager’s stint as a jet mechanic led him to being a test pilot. Jet engines were so unreliable at first that he had more time in jets than anybody in the Air Force.
