My guess is Bob was being the perfect gentleman he’s always been otherwise he would probably have rather not be seen as an invalid being wheeled around in a chair. God bless him. Watched many of his great show performances back in the day. No one was better, no one.
A fine gentleman and great pilot!!!!
What a great picture! It says so many good things about aviation.
