Air Force pilot Major Robert M. White poses for a 'right stuff' portrait in front of the North American X-15 hypersonic research aircraft at the Flight Research Center in California on November 19, 1959. White made 16 flights in the X-15 between April 1960 and December 1962. |

That is an impressive photo, Ed. I like the steely resolve on White's face. |

This is another example of the personal time Ed spends for us. I'm sure none of us have ever seen this image. Thank you Ed, for once more giving freely of yourself and your time, so that I, along with a myriad of others, have a special place to look forward to.The best to you this New Year! |

Nice photo, but I was going to say that I like it when, like here, I have seen one of Ed's pictures already. Makes me feel just a little less behind in my knowledge. It doesn't happen often. |
