Thanks for sharing...great pictures! I know exactly what you mean about the feeling just being around the shuttle. My husband, Bob, and I had the opportunity to see the first shuttle land at Edwards in April, 1981 (Columbia) and then attended a launch at Kennedy Space Center in May, 2008 (Discovery). Both were life highlights. Touring Kennedy all day the day of the launch and seeing all the exhibits was priceless. Anyone who can should take the opportunity to see the shuttle on exhibit in LA.

Amazing photos very cool I got to play in the training mockup at Johnson but not the real thing. So friends at United perhaps you can grab some shots of the 787 once that starts LA/IAH Service in November :) Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for taking and sharing the close-up photos. Not at all what I was expecting and I appreciate they haven't glossed it up for prosperity but you see it in its 'working' condition.

Awesome! It looks organic, almost like it used to be a living and breathing creature, like dinosaurs. Thanks for sharing :)
