I recall seeing that test pilot on an old TV show.  I forget the title
of the show, but it had four celebrities asking three people questions,
trying to decide who were imposters.  The test pilot said he was in the
hospital for a year and a half after the crash.

The prime pilot of the M2-F2 was Milton Thompson.  He wrote an article in
the popular press (Popular Science?) called "I Fly Without Wings."  This may
have been boiled down from a book he wrote.  Is he the pilot who crashed?
