Undated photo of hay baling crew near Florence, Montana. Steam tractor in foreground on dirt road pulling two carts and followed by one horse-drawn carriage.

October 12, 1947: Sunday. Glennis is feeling better so Chuck takes her to Pancho's for dinner. They decide to go on a moonlit ride. And on the way back, decide to race back. But someone has closed the gate so Chuck's horse pulls 5 G's turning but Chuck kept going. Youch! He's supposed to attempt to fly the X-1 past the sound barrier in 2 days....!!!!
2nd fr left Col Al Boyd, right front Jack Ridley, Middle back Chuck & Glennis Yeager. That sure does not look much like Poncho's in the Right Stuff movie potraied. It was a drama not a documentary.
A troll; the tallest structure ever moved by mankind.
