Back in the 60s I commuted down Texas 3 (Old Galveston Road) to my job at the Manned Spacecraft Center. Depending on the wind, the road was at the end of the take-off run for the F105s based at Ellington. They weren’t known as Thunderchiefs for nothing.
That must have been very cool. My hat is off to those fellows, what brave men! Thanks for your reply.
