[Star Wars] How much of Han Solo's fame and reputation as a smuggler came from being a skilled/lucky pilot with a fast ship vs being The Human Who Flies With a Wookie?

I never really considered this before watching the Book of Boba Fett and being introduced to Black Krrsantan, but Wookies are genuinely *terrifying*.  Having a Wookie as co-pilot/engineer has to have affected how others in that sort of life perceived Han, right?

Han Solo's "fame and reputation" is mostly all in his own head.

He's only known among other smugglers, thieves and pirates because they all know each other, and work for the same criminal syndicates.   Outside of that group, no one knows who he is. 

That said, not ALL Wookiees are terrifying necessarily.  They CAN be, and those who are warriors and bounty hunters and ALSO work for these syndicates can be terrifying indeed... but most Wookiees are peace loving species who value family, friendship, and caring for others.
