You can recognize some people just by their voice, and even over the radio. I was working in St. Pete/Clearwater Tower one night about 1975 and a Beech Baron, a high performance twin, was inbound for landing. When I talked to him, I knew right away it was Arthur Godfrey. After he landed and taxied in, I said I'm going down to the ramp. I walked up the aircraft when the door opened it was Arthur Godfrey flying by himself a twin at night and he was in his early 70's. I asked if he needed a hand, and helped carry in his bags.
