BIADThere's probably more to this than meets the eye. Five hours before 727Sky kindly posted
this above, the BBC posted a piece on the astronauts who went to the moon.
Strange.
The last of the Moon men: the stories of the surviving Apollo astronauts
I had Buzz on one of my flights and during the boarding process he stopped by the cockpit. I looked at him and he looked at me as I was standing up doing the normal meet and greet of the passengers. I said, " Well I think I might know you" while all the time I knew who he was... He stuck out his hand and said "Buzz Aldrin" to which I replied come on in and take a seat (meaning the cockpit) he stepped in and I introduced him to my first and second officers. I told him he could stay during the flight (totally against rules and regulations)but he assured me his first class seat would be better than the cockpit jump seat.. We laughed and after a bit he left. I told my first class flight attendant whatever he wants to drink the company is buying. The flight attendant winked and said OK boss can do.
Thankfully I made one of those kind of landings that is described as a cat pissing on a piece of velvet ... When he left the aircraft he stuck his head in the cockpit and gave us a thumbs up,,, It's an aviation kind of thing ,,,hahahah

Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong.
Silence those who disagree and you will never realize you are wrong.
No one rules if no one obeys
