Twenty-Second Boyd

[rbandrews]

John Boyd was the greatest fighter pilot in the history of the US Air Force. When he was a teacher at the Fighter Weapons School, he had a standing bet with any of the young pilots who would come through there: meet him at thirty thousand feet over the desert. Get in tight on his six. He would reverse your positions in twenty econds, or pay you twenty dollars.
He never, not once, lost the bet.
