Talk:Elliot See

Crash site
Where exactly was the building See and Bassett crashed into? This article makes it sound like they just crashed into a building at the airport, but I distinctly remember reading that, in a tragic irony, they were on their way to inspect their Gemini 9 capsule and crashed into the very building that housed it! The Lambert Field article notes that "McDonnell Douglass had its world headquarters adjacent to the airport." Can we track this down? JustinTime55 (talk) 20:22, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Military career
I was writing the section on his schooling, and it got into his midshipmen days, and I realized I do not know what that means. Would you like to take a crack at writing that paragraph? Perhaps the military career too if you are feeling up to it, but I may be able to handle that. I plan to take this to FA at some point.  Kees08  (Talk)   05:17, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Sure. No problems.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  06:43, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Done. It would be good if you could expand the NASA section.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  02:39, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I've added a picture - remove it if you don't like it. An error in Burgess & Dolan was really bothering me - the claim that he toured the Med on USS Boxer. Having consulted the cruise books, I am certain that it was on USS Randolph.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  21:13, 9 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Up to you to expand the NASA part. He gave a brief interview to Life magazine   Hawkeye7   (discuss)  21:17, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks, looks great so far. I'll try to get the rest up to snuff; been a bit under the weather again so took a short break.  Kees08  (Talk)   03:34, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

I know it was not his fault, but should we include when he was flying in the..bomber was it?..that crashed? I think the T-38 crash was his third aircraft accident. I have gone back and forth and could go either way. Also, would you be able to add a bit about his military experience in the intro, and with that, would you like to co-nom this to A-class with me?

 * Are you okay with being co-nominated for this article at A-class?  Kees08  (Talk)   18:19, 18 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Sure. No problems there.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  19:32, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
