Guest Fendy Report post Posted March 4, 2006 hey guys... was browsing the web and happened upon this photo... thought its really cool so just wanted to share. Palmdale, California, 1977 Photograph by Bruce Dale “The magnificent jet propels air safety to new heights, yet accidents still occur. Records show that takeoff and landing remain the critical phases of flight. One long-range solution is increased automation. A Lockheed TriStar touches down ‘hands off’ at Palmdale, California; a time exposure by a remotely operated camera attached to the aircraft’s vertical tail fin blurs city and runway lights." full version + wallpaper avaliable from http://lava.nationalgeographic.com/cgi-bin...onth=04&year=04 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
