I want to adopt your news station. They portrayed the project in a positive light instead of in a crazy car bomber kind of way that many would do. :cool:

The Saturn looked great sitting there. I hope its flight is successful.

I wonder what he used for fillet's... LOL :chuckle:

I would love to see some close up pics of that. Looking at parts of the video, he put immense detail into it. Looks gorgeous! Truly an amazing accomplishment; hopefully he has a successful launch and recovery!

Depends on wind and weather. Not sure if Verns is going up first or Steves. The start time is 10ish. There will probably be a nominimal parking fee on the farm. Rain day is Sunday.

That 1b is absolutely beautiful! I wish I could be there to see it launched.
