Mike Adams, the only Pilot who died during the X-15 Flight-Test Program

I’m here because of one episode from the TV series “Call To Glory” only now I’ve learned that they based the X-15 crash on this.

I was riding my motorcycle through the desert and came across a memorial at the crash site. I was just riding, and there it was.

What a thrill flying a plane at forty five hundred miles an hour

Maybe. But at 200,000 feet you can’t see the ground and you have little source of reference. I’d be seriously scared of not finding the landing site.
