Bob Hoover

I had the very special privilege to dine with him at an event in Hollywood a few years ago....we exchanged some interesting flying tales and I learned the reason why he used a back-handed pouring technique when he did the "pour a glass of tea" video while performing a barrel roll maneuver. Seems that when he poured it normally, his hand blocked the shot from the camera....up until that point, I just thought he was showing off!!!!
