Typical sight in the Mojave

Post by rlux4 »

Where I live, Lancaster, Ca. is the home of a lot of aviation history. Rockwell Skunk Works is here, right up the road is Edwards AFB where the sound barrier was first broken, and Mojave, Ca. where Burt Ruttan has his company, Scaled Composites, which is the pre-eminant private space craft builder, and the Voyager which was the first plane to fly around the world without stopping or refueling.
Here's a shot of the B-2 stealth bomber which was built here. This was flying around the desert yesterday.

Not sure if the bird in the lower left will catch up. :lol:
