He claims the Army rejected him because he was to short but the Airforce gave him some phonebooks to sit on ....
Mike says F103s did not exist which means he was a test pilot
Here ya go the Republic XF-103, never got past the mock up stage.

I have an article about the XF-103 in an old issue of Wings/Airpower.
Back to work I must go :-(

Yup that’s it
work is highly overrated
the iconic space suit that we all know was developed for the U2 Dragonlady and she still flies
The 10 minute video was a GREAT video, although Mr. May has a fascination with bodily fluids, eh?
Back to that dang work thing:-(
