Not too many great things have happened since. The space shuttle while the "latest and greatest" in the 80's is now a jurrasic hunk of crap and while newer spacecraft concepts (x-33 and X-34) have come along NASA has canned them. Which is a shame since there was an X-34 that was only weeks from flying when the program got dropped.... and now what is NASA spending money on the CEV (a modernized step back to Apollo) that's brilliant. The real shame with some of the space technology that we have not progressed on is that some of it was envisioned and studied by the Nazi's back in the 40's. Such as Dr. Sangers Silver Eagle.... http://www.luft46.com/misc/sanger.html bottom line the idea of hypersonic aerospace planes is an old one where no progress has been made... (almost of 70 years of no progress to be exact) and sadly has these ideas gone through when they were though up who knows how much farther along we would be by now.... Personally I think NASA has seen its day and now that day has long since passed. Bottom line I hope companies like Scaled Composites go in develope more and better ships and eat their lunch....

That would be especially true of one who live in the Bay Area AND works in the travel industry. :D
I guess that's why a straight Bay Area gal has to occasionally pop in here and hang out with you manly pilot types! :p :) |

Lord, girl! You are mixed up!
While I'm in here in the cargo thread - I have a question to ask of you cargo folks who have flown in or out of OAK and SFO in the last couple of days. I also know that a lot of international pax flights leave out of SFO at night...And yes, this is probably a dumb question - :p Have they changed the flight patterns in the last couple of days? The weather has changed so I figured that might be the case. I live right on the bay, and there have been planes climbing, or coming in, over Angel Island all night for the last few nights. - Not that it bothers me. I sleep like a baby and it doesn't wake me. I only notice it when I'm awake. I've only lived in my new place on the bay for just a month, so maybe it's common. It really doesn't bother me because I listen to waves lull me to sleep every night. :) I'll wave to ya'all when I'm out on the deck. |
