Just finished his autobiography "Fighter Pilot". One of the best books I've ever read.

Lets not forget Jim Shuttleworth guys, Robin Olds was a great guy and so was Jim, unfortunately not long after he restored Scat VII he crashed at Oshkosh and was killed, Scat VII however was restored and is still flying. That plane is a flying memorial to two great men.

I just finished reading his book, "Fighter Pilot!" In Viet Nam, with 4 Migs to his credit, he was giving his wingmen the chance to shoot down enemy aircraft he had as "meat on the table," since he knew he would be sent immediately Stateside upon claiming a 5th victory. A major stud, this man!
The Ultimate Badass.

General Olds is beyond a legend, a personal hero.
