Pima called me a few minutes ago with some really cool news! A buddy of mine, and fellow WSO from my F-111 days, was on Good Morning America this morning, showing the "Zero-gravity simulation trainer" in action to the morning anchors. Col Mike Good (they were calling him "Col Mike" in the segment) was being interviewed UNDERWATER! Mike is scheduled to go up this summer (on the Atlantis, I believe) as a mission specialist to do a bunch of space walks repairing and upgrading the Hubble telescope. They even showed his family, which I haven't seen since his kids were playing with my kids yeeeears ago. (I saw Mike last summer at our local air show, good to see all the training hasn't made him go grey up top, yet.)
Way Cool! Way to make us WSOs proud, Mike!
So you young men and women out there, hoping to follow in his path; dreams do come true! Aim High, even shoot for the stars!
