Did you know that on this day (October 1st) in 1942, Robert Stanley, a test pilot at Bell Aircraft flew the Bell XP-59A for the first time at Muroc Field, which would later become Edward’s Air Force Base. Born in Oklahoma, Stanley came to Bell in 1940, as a test pilot and worked his way up in the company to become the Chief Engineer and later Engineering Vice President. During his tenure, he oversaw the development of the Bell X-1, the world’s first supersonic plane.
