Bob Hoover To Be Honored At Movie Premier, Gala

A Cavalcade Of Aviation Industry Stars Will Celebrate The Life Of The Aviation Legend

The legacy of Robert A. "Bob" Hoover will be celebrated February 21 as the aviation community gathers in Los Angeles, CA to honor Bob's long, successful flying career. Known as the “Gentleman Pilot”, Hoover is a World War II combat aviator and Prisoner of War, unparalleled test pilot, one of the airshow community's all-time performers and the legendary airborne starter of the National Championship (Reno) Air Races in his P51 Mustang 'Ole Yeller'.

The celebration will consist of the premier of the documentary “Bob Hoover’s Legacy”, a gala dinner, and a series of special events, that combined, will create a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Bob Hoover's legacy is defined by his life, and his superior understanding of the flight characteristics required to fly any aircraft, anytime.  His ability to dissect an airplane’s weaknesses and work with aerospace engineers to correct them is legendary.

Planned activities include a rare opportunity to interact personally with Bob, as he shares his personal stories with the audience, and viewing of that documentary that many in the industry say is long overdue.

Proceeds from the $950.00 per ticket event will support a series of Bob Hoover scholarships.
