Attended an air show at Hamilton in the mid ‘80s. A very cantankerous Pappy Boyington was there selling autographed copies of Baa Baa Black Sheep.  Being basically cheap and having read the book in high school I passed on the experience of meeting him.  Not long after I heard that he’d died.  Trying not to pass up experiences like that ever since.

I think I was there!  :)

 

Not sure if it was at that day or a later event, but got to see Bob Hoover fly at a Hamilton show.  The man was amazing!

 

Boyington was notorious for being cranky. And I didn't buy his book either.  :(
