Chuck Yeager's logbook,
courtesy Jeff Harlow, CA

According to reliable sources, the
Falcons are the only aircraft Chuck Yeager personally owned, at least back then.
He owned a Falcon UL and subsequently an XP. You may have seen it with the big
Delco sticker. His trade mark were the words " Glamorous Glennis " in
big script letters scrolled on each side of the nose. Glennis was his wife of
course. The story goes that an overzealous salesman copied those markings
on number of Falcons in an effort to repeatedly sell " Chuck Yeager's
personal airplane". Understandably Chuck was less than pleased when he
found out about it. Occasionally I will get calls from shoppers telling me that
they have the opportunity to buy Chuck Yeager's airplane only to find out that
the log books are missing, probably taken by souvenir hunters. Buyers beware.
Here however is an authentic logbook.

ad which ran back in the eighties, when Chuck Yeager was the spokesperson for
the Falcons. Submitted by Rob Rimbold, XP pilot from FL, thanks Rob.
