Personal Information

Bio

Charles E. 'Chuck' Yeager has been called a lot of things in his 80 years such as 'the fastest man alive', 'Mr. Supersonic' and 'the guy with the right stuff', but none is more fitting than the title, "a true American". Despite his youth in the poverty-stricken backwoods of West Virginia, Yeager became a fighter ace, legendary test pilot, leader of men, and an icon for generations, all while doing what he loved: flying. His is an American story, one that inspires us and teaches us to always look to the skies.
