Funny story.   Franklin was hanging out in front of the Langley Air Force Base runway on Armistead Ave.  The cops came by and told him and a few others they had to leave.  There were about 20 NASA Langley workers watching the C-5 take off.  Everyman managed to slip off the road in front of the main gate and take a couple of pics.  Great job Everyman.

    There is a passenger compartment in the C-5, behind the wing box. I know because I have flown in one.

  2. Fantastic photo of Final Call for Ares I-X: CM/LAS flight to NASA Kennedy Space Center. Great perspective and atmosphere!
