LOL! P-38 ace in the Pacific, as I'm sure you know. Managed to to kill himself when his P-80 flamed out on takeoff. 'Chute wrapped around the tail and he went in with his plane. Yeager considered him arrogant and claimed that he died because he didn't learn about his aircraft before he flew it = NOT A TEST PILOT.
