The NASA Talon's have been one of my white whales. As Ahab once said, "He tasks me! That whale, he tasks me!" Well, these NASA birds have been tasking me for several months. With Joe's help today, I finally got my whale  ;D





GOODBYE JEFF - Yes, the back seat has a very nice blonde pony-tail.

Nice shot, Jeff!

Now you can try for the other 32 NASA T-38s.  :D

Should only take about six hours at Ellington to make that happen.   :)

Thanks Chris. Instead of the Ellington trip Joe, I'll just slowly pick them off over time  ;)  Here is a shot of NASA Astronaut Candidates Kathleen Rubins & Scott Tingle getting ready to "bug-out" to Houston.

I highly recommend a trip to Ellington.  The place is like Willie on steroids.
