Grumman Test Pilots - Bob Smyth

This begins a series of articles concerning the many pilots who flight tested Grumman’s line of aircraft from 1930 to 1994. There is no specific order to the personalities we will cover, however, we begin with Bob Smyth who performed first flight on the F-14A. We feel this is appropriate since the F-14 is the centerpiece of Grumman Memorial Park.
