Grew up at Edwards from 1988 to 2004, loved the history and seeing all of the unique airframes, volunteered at the aerospace museum in Boron when I got out of the Air Force. Live in Idaho now, miss the sounds of jets and sonic booms. Really appreciate you sharing Ed's story, such an amazing man.

Thanks "Wings" for getting the story from Ed Dwight, Jr. He was discriminated against, yet persevered to overcome all the obstacles. Thank goodness NASA has changed its tune and now has minorities and WOMEN in its ranks✅ And Dwight FINALLY went up to space‼👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

This was amazing, it needs to be a movie. This story has to be know and not by aviation geeks.

About what? Yeager was a brave test pilot. Very decorated officer.

Amazing right. He has been a hero of mine since I was a kid. Bit there were others to. Probably why this isn't a well known story.
