See what happens when a Scottish pilot hangs out at NASA's Johnson Space Center too long!
Greetings from Houston, Texas to all Shadow pilots around the world!
Don't wait for the documentary...Stay tuned here, and on our soon to be announced WebPages, for the unfolding details of an adventure involving your beloved Shadow. You wouldn't think a little 400-lb. aeroplane would even get the attention of people, who on a daily basis, think about Mars, deep space and beyond.
Over the coming months I'll tell you a story of what a bunch of Lockheed-Martin Sr. Mechanical Technicians, NASA engineers, Hyperbaic specialists, mission controllers, and aviation professionals do in their spare time in Texas. I tell you how this whole crazy thing got started, where it's going, and I'll let you know when it gets there, and oh yes, I'll give you date of time when the documentary airs next year.
If you find pre-breathing oxygen for two hours before a three hour flight, 80 degrees below zero, crossing a jet stream that will probably be "smokin" by next January, and your canopy flash freezing the instant you hit the warmer (very moist Texas air) upon descent, then you're as crazy as we are. Adios for now!
