Yesterday morning @ around 9:00 I get a call from my friend, that informed me that @ 9:30 there was going to be some kind of special flight @ Ellington Field , and i thought to myself i don't want to shoot at night some planes, but then he said "dude not tonight! this morning! , like in 30 minutes" so I left my office and drove 30 minutes to the airport that usually will take 40 minutes to get there :D:D:D and what follow is what 367.5 feet total wings span and 6000 square feet of wings surface area looks like.

WB-57 First time ever for NASA to fly the 3 Planes formation

Enjoy

    Thank you Taz and it was nice talking to you last week, see you soon I hope.

    Ccoop I am glad 2 and also I am glad I didn't get a speeding ticket on the way there :-) that day was a beautiful day and the next few days were horrible, so we all got lucky to be able to enjoy such an event in all it's beauty. It took NASA over 1 year to plan this flight since there are only 2 of those planes here @ Ellington and to get all 3 ready to flight on the same day is not an easy task i guess.
