Lloyd Miller's Flight Test Development Stories & Photos at Edwards AFB CA
On 06 July 2011, I received an e-mail from a Convair Engineer that worked the F-106 Flight Development Program at Edwards AFB CA from the start of the program in the late 1950s. He offered photos and stories of some of his experiences with the F-106 Program and they are shared below. Click here for Mr. Miller's introduction and the start of some of his stories.
