Author Website Biographical Information Yeager returned to the United States in February 1945, assigned to Perrin Field, Texas as a basic flying instructor. A few months later, in July, he was assigned as a maintenance officer at the Flight Test Division of Wright Field, Ohio. At Wright, Yeager quickly gained the attention of Col. Albert Boyd, chief of the division, for his remarkable flying skills. He graduated from the Flight Performance School (now the U.S. Air Force Test Pilot School) and Wright Field in 1946 and in 1947 received a regular commission as an Air Force Captain. In late summer 1947 he was sent to Muroc Army Air Field (now Edwards Air Force Base) to test the rocket-powered Bell X-1. Chuck Yeager continued his career as an Air Force test pilot into the 1950s, including a 1953 test of an Air Force X-1A rocket plane that again made him the "World's Fastest Man." In 1954, he left Edwards Air Force Base to work at the 12th Air Force Headquarters in West Germany, making test flights with nuclear weapons. He returned to the United States in 1957, serving as commander of the 1st Fighter Squadron at George Air Force Base, California. In 1962 he returned to Edwards Air Force Base, with his new rank of Colonel, to become commandant of the U.S. Air Force Aerospace Research Pilot School, responsible for the training of U.S. military astronaut candidates.

Background The X-1 Series Timeline X-1 Specs ... XLR-11 Rocket Engine The first of the rocket-powered research aircraft, the X-1 (originally designated the XS-1), was a bullet-shaped airplane that was built by the Bell Aircraft Company for the US Air Force and the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA). The mission of the X-1 was to investigate the transonic speed range (speeds from just below to just above the speed of sound) and, if possible, to break the "sound barrier". The XS-1 program not only proved that humans could go beyond the speed of sound, it reinforced the understanding that technological barriers could be overcome. Many structural and aerodynamic advances were pioneered by the original XS-1s, including extremely thin, yet exceptionally strong wing sections, supersonic fuselage configurations, control system requirements, powerplant compatibility, and cockpit environment. For the first time in a transonic-capable aircraft, an all-moving stabilizer was utilized. The flights of the XS-1's opened up a new era in aviation.

First man to break the sound barrier, flying Bell X-1 World War 2 ace, shot down 11 German planes, including 2 Me-262 jets AcePilots Main Page The Forum Eighth Air Force Aces Page Yeager Page 2 ... X-15 Chuck Yeager's accomplishments as an ace in WWII have been overshadowed by his achievements as a test pilot, but his fighter pilot experiences were remarkable on their own. An eighteen-year old West Virgina country boy, he joined the U.S. Army Air Force in 1941 and shot down eleven (and a half!) German planes, including two Me-262 jets. He was also shot down over France, evaded, joined the Maquis, and made his way back to England via Spain. Somehow he persuaded the brass to let him continue flying fighter missions in Europe, contrary to policy. All of this by the age of twenty-two. Born in 1923, son of Albert Hal Yeager (a staunch Republican, so firm in his party loyalties that he once refused to shake President Harry Truman's hand), Charles E. "Chuck" Yeager grew up in Myra, on the Mud River in West Virgina. His dirt-poor youth was filled with hillbilly themes that sound romantic today, but probably weren't much fun at the time: making moonshine, eating cornmeal mush three times a day, shooting squirels for dinner, chasing rats out of the kitchen, going barefoot all summer, butchering hogs, and stealing watermelons. At an early age Chuck could do well at anything requiring manual dexterity or math: ping-pong, shooting, auto mechanics. He enlisted in the Army Air Corps

CHUCK YEAGER Pilot A combat pilot in World War II, Yeager was shot down over France in 1943, but not captured. After the war he was put in charge of pilot training for experimental aircraft, and on October 14, 1947 became the first person to break the sound barrier, flying a rocket powered Bell X-1 jet. He helped train the first U.S. astronauts and, as if there were no end to his studliness, flew combat missions over Vietnam in the 1960s. In the 1980s Yeager became a celebrity, thanks in large part to Tom Wolfe's The Right Stuff , an account of the early U.S. space program. Extra credit : Yeager's Bell X-1 was called the Glamorous Glennis in tribute to Yeager's wife... Yeager was played by actor Sam Shepard in the 1984 film The Right Stuff ; Yeager himself had a small role in the film as a bartender.

Charles E. (Chuck) Yeager Charles E. (Chuck) Yeager (1923- ) enlisted in the U.S. Air Force in 1941 at the age of eighteen. He worked as an aircraft mechanic and pilot before going over the Atlantic to fight in World War II. Upon returning from war, he entered test pilot school and so impressed his superiors that he was selected to fly the X-1 from over 125 senior pilots. On October 14, 1947, Yeager broke the sound barrier over the town of Victorville, California. Six years later, on another test flight, Yeager pushed his plane, the X-1A, to new heights, but almost lost his life as his plane came within feet of crashing. During the fifties, he flew several experimental aircraft for the Air Force and investigated various accidents. In 1960 he was appointed director of the Space School at Edwards Air Force Base. He went to Vietnam as a wing commander in 1966 and flew over 120 combat missions. In 1986, Yeager was appointed to the Presidential Commission investigating the Challenger accident.
