Awww, shucks.
That's part of our local PBS stations's "Summer of Space" series (cripes that's a lots of esses!)
Anyway, I think Pugs posted a link to that earlier. I give credit to them, they made what I thought was a so-so interview by me into something quite nice.
One question they asked me was about the fact that we haven't been back to the moon for 50 years. I answered that the significant thing is not that we haven't gone back, it's that no other nation has been able to go at all. The only footprints there are ours.

Niceš
Pilots like Rocky when they step onto your commercial Airliners always put me at ease.
And yes by that I mean older White Dudes that most likely were ex-Military pilots.

i doubt he will plug them himself, so i will. READ HIS BOOKS. About his experiences in vietnam or better said s.e. asia. I have given them to some people suffering from various service connected issues, and they have helped. When i got both of them, they were not put down until i had read both of them. flying isn't the only thing, just one of many, he has done well.

Outstanding, Rocky! Glad to put a face with the name and proud to have made your acquaintance here on the fire. I met Rocky in Ogden and we walked through the Browning museum and talked of history and the Campfire. Rocky is an extremely courteous gentleman and I hope to fish with him sometime. While talking about his past, someone overheard the conversation and was impressed to find that Rocky was the voice for Cape Canaveral during many of the manned space launches during the space race with Russia. He consented and gave the countdown verbatim. They were quite impressed but not affected whatsoever at my presence, and that still stings a bit...

They are OUTSTANDING! I love the interview too.
