I had the pleasure of having dinner with Jon McBride and his wife during the Space Rendezvous in 2010. He was an excellent guy to talk with about the Space Shuttle and the launch manifest for 1986. Learned a lot from him in our conversation. In 1985 he sent me a crew autographed photo and flight patch for STS 61-E/Columbia/Astro-1. He and I talked about the photo and patch and he told me that he was scheduled for the Astro-2 mission in 1987 as well. A true gentleman!! |

Sad to hear of this. I got to meet Jon in 2005 at the Astronaut Hall of Fame to view the launch of STS-114. Rest in peace. |
