I sure did. A couple of times when he was on the airshow circuit. My Grandfather used to take me to every airshow within a hundred mile radius of Ormond Beach, Florida where i grew up. We also had a long one on one visit with Mr. Hoover at one of the shows. He had just flown a P-51 Mustang to Florida from California and we happened to be there when he arrived. He was a real gentleman. Did you know he flew Spitfires in North Africa during the war?
