It's a shorter flight than from Whiteman AFB in Warrensburg, MO (not too far from Kansas City).

Oops - Technically, Whiteman is just outside of Warrensburg, in "Knobnoster." Hey, I don't make these names up.

No need to apologize as this is not a dupe. I thought you and others who missed the earlier thread might want to read the other comments.

If you aren’t crashing, you aren’t flying. Watching such a accident makes me proud that Americans have the courage to build and fly such incredible machines.

Quite a difference in the angle of the dangle between the one that took off successfully and the one that didn't.......

Did you see something fly off just before the second aircraft went nose up?

sorry, I don't know which is worse, the "cinematography" or the crash.

I couldn't watch the whole thing.

Not pleasant to watch. Glad they got out.
I had read some preliminary remarks about the cause of the over rotation some time ago.

anyone heard anything new?

Shouldn’t we just see a blank screen if it is truly a stealthy aircraft?

There's an amateur video of a shuttle launch from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral floating around the 'net.

While his camera is fixed on the launch pad and the excitement in his voice builds as he joins in the countdown.........

6
5
4
3
2
1............

the roar coming from the launch pad and the cheers from the throngs don't quite seem to match the events in his viewfinder.

Apparently KSC has TWO launch pads and this particular camera was pointed at the empty tower.

The ensuing scramble to turn the camera in the right direction was hysterical......never mind the 4 letter words coming out his mouth.
