Oldest
Is Melvill the oldest person ever to pilot a spacecraft? If not, who is?
- Probably, he was 63 at the time. He is definitely not the oldest astronaut at least, that would be John Glenn. I think he might also the oldest rookie astronaut. --TheDJ (talk • contribs) 14:16, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Just a note about his birthyear; many articles indicates it's 1941 at Johannesburg. http://www.astronautix.com/astros/melvill.htm --Nerval 20:28, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Yep, here's another: http://www.worldspaceflight.com/bios/m/melvill-m.htm I'm changing the page. --Doradus 01:58, Oct 8, 2004 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Mike Melvill's son. The articles have his birth year wrong. He was born in 1940. Keith Melvill [1] 08:05, Jan 10, 2017 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stile2 (talk • contribs) 16:06, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
