Space Shuttle Endeavour Ferry Flight Continues West
“After the refueling stop at Biggs, the SCA and Endeavour will make low-level flybys of the White Sands Missile Range and NASA’s White Sands Test Facility in New Mexico, as well as Tucson, Arizona en route to California. The flyover of Tucson will take place approximately an hour and 15 minutes after departure from Biggs. Arrival at NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center on Edwards Air Force Base is scheduled for approximately noon PDT.”
I remembered when I last saw a Shuttle over Edwards it was missing a tail cone, and it suddenly came off, dove, and did a landing right in front of me.
