My Dad, Frank Baker, is there today. He worked at Edwards for over 30 years, flew with Chuck Yeager, and was buddies with Pancho Barnes. This will be a great day for him.

It got a little noisy here yesterday and every time I looked up they were already gone.

I was at work yesterday (Edwards AFB) and was able to watch some of the pilots practicing their maneuvers! We (co-workers)had our own private air show! Beautiful!
B-1, B-2, B-52, C17, C-130, F-15, F-22 etc!

Interesting to note on Google Earth....if you zoom in to Edwards and look a little, there's not one, but TWO SR-71s off Lakeshore just west of the compass in the lakebed.
Operational?

I was out at the base yesterday and had a chance to watch the practice runs; it was great fun. I hope the folks who attend have a wonderful time - the weather today is perfect for an air show.
