I met BA in Colorado Springs in 05 at the In Their Honor Airshow. He is an awesome guy and gave me a Heritage Flight Museum patch. He also flew the AF Heritage Flight with a C model Eagle out of Langley.
Another great podcast. So many great people with great stories, and Imagine your father taking probably the most iconic photo of the last century.
If you ever get the chance to interview "Notso" (if he agrees) that would be an awesome time! He was one of the SME's for the F-15E module in DCS.
He has a RUclips channel: Notso
Great guy!
Great stuff, BA! God's speed, classmate. Cheers, "Jason."
Good stuff.
B.A. is Bill Anders' son? That's so awesome. I can also imagine the pressure on someone in that scenario.
does BA stand for Bill Anders ?
My dream is to become flighter pilot in the future so please guys if you have advice share it with me🛩️🙂↔️
Read a lot. Take a sample flying lesson and 2 hours of ground school.
Any chance Fire Corn ships to Australia? 👅 🥵
