Charles "Chuck" Yeager was a famous American fighter pilot in World War II on Earth. After the war, Yeager served as a test pilot, and in the Bell X-1 plane, he made the first level human supersonic flight.

Enterprise ensign Travis Mayweather once remarked he overcame his fear of tense piloting by mimicking Charles Yeager. (ENT: "Demons"}

It is also believed that the Yeager class starship is named in his honor.
