Frequent contributor Ted Luebbers recently sent in this photo of the Bob Hoover tribute on display at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center at Dulles International Airport.

Hoover, considered one of the best pilots in history, passed away Oct. 25 at the age of 94.

Luebbers adds: “Notice his plane, the North American Rockwell Shrike 500S “Sweetie Face” and the life-size statue of the man.”
