Obama is making sure to get these birds into Museums and the vitals removed before the election.

He is a treasonous bastard.

Just went to get a coffee in the break room, where CNN bleats out all day. They showed it live, flying over what looked like Elizabeth. So I walked outside to our parking deck and looked towards the Hudson.

Then I turned around and it was right behind me, flying over the Giants Stadium area. Got a great look as it banked over Bergen County and headed back over the Hudson.

Thanks for the heads up! Cool stuff.

You’re welcome. I went back to bed soon after posting and so missed it. I don’t if it would have been visible from my part of NY anyway. Guess I’ll have to wait for the pics to come out.

Yes, that is indeed a very funny Profile/Home page you have:

I am pleased that these flyovers were directed to those cities which developed and made these vehicles fly...like Houston, Cape Canaveral.....you know, showing their appreciation. Oh, excuse me...New York and Washington...they get that perk.

I witnessed the flyover from the Steven’s Inst. of Tech overlook, high above Hoboken, NJ. There were THOUSANDS out for the flyover, and many, (including me!) shouted with excitement as the flight neared and passed over, accompanied by an F-18, I think. Maybe less than 2000ft, it seemed enormous and slow. Yet the feeling of national pride was palpable. ‘Never let an audience go quietly,’ I always say. I bicycled through the crowd, reminding everyone that OBAMA killed the space shuttle, and encouraged everyone to ‘be proud of America again’ and DEPORT OBAMA!

[ Well, Obama does like those big planes flying over NY.... ]

As part of NASA Mooslimb outreach the space shuttle Enterprise will be glided into the Chrysler Building.

Dude, I think you're missing the point of the flyover.

The shuttle flew in or out of Houston and Cape Canaveral all the time. What would be the point of another flyover of their home bases?

There has never been a shuttle in the sky around NYC before. That was what was interesting about it.
