Erasing the Past...One Baltimore ledger This Day in Aviation | Milton O. Thompson Sixty Years On | Dec. 20, 1962 (click here for video)
"NASA research pilot Milton O. Thompson, after making a weather evaluation flight for an impending X-15 flight in NASA Lockheed JF-104A-10-LO Starfighter, 56-0749, c/n 183-1037, made a simulated X-15 approach at Rogers Dry Lake, Edwards Air Force Base, California, but experienced major problems. Unable to resolve the situation, he ejected while inverted at 18,000 feet after the airframe had made four complete rolls.
The fighter impacted nose first on Edwards bombing range, whilst Thompson descended safely by parachute and walked to a nearby road, where NASA Flight Operations chief Joe Vensel, speeding to the crash site and expecting the worst, found him waiting uninjured. An investigation would later find that the crash was probably the result of an electrical malfunction in the left trailing-edge flap." [Wikipedia]

"The Manchurian Candidate is a 1962 American neo-noir psychological political thriller film directed and produced by John Frankenheimer. The screenplay is by George Axelrod, based on the 1959 Richard Condon novel The Manchurian Candidate. The film's leading actors are Frank Sinatra, Laurence Harvey, and Angela Lansbury, with co-stars Janet Leigh, Henry Silva, and James Gregory.
The plot centers on Korean War veteran Raymond Shaw, part of a prominent political family. Shaw is brainwashed by communists after his Army platoon is captured. He returns to civilian life in the United States, where he becomes an unwitting assassin in an international communist conspiracy. The group, which includes representatives of the People’s Republic of China and the Soviet Union, plans to assassinate the presidential nominee of an American political party leading to the overthrow of the U.S. government."
