Audience Member If you are a pilot you will love this film. I saw Bob Hoover fly at the Abbottsford Airshow near Vancouver, BC, Canada. His Shrike Commander aerobatic show is the most precise routine I have ever seen. You have to be an air show pilot to appreciate how good a stick and rudder man he is. This film is the story of his life. There will never be another pilot exactly like Bob. No one will ever have the opportunities to do all of the things he has done. I have the DVD and have watched it many times. Check out his book as well. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member An awesome documentary of the greatest pilot that ever lived! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Very well done - captures the history of Bob Hoover through the context of his accomplishments and what he's done for aviation. Loaded with pictures and video going back to ~WWII era. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
