Many years ago, my 2 daughters and I were on the way out of town. We noticed traffic was at a standstill and people were out of their cars and looking up. We got out and saw the shuttle/plane overhead. What a thrilling experience. We have never forgotten. Another precious memory to share.
AMEN RUSH!! Our current society thinks NOTHING about what it takes to accomplish such feats such as sticking THE SHUTTLE on the back of a 747! We COULD do the same thing today, but thanks to all of the Goverment Regs, probably would not be able to do this. Try taking off with ELECTRIC POWER and do this!!!!!!
