If Orville and Wilbur Wright could have seen this, I belive they'd have crapped their pants.

Very nice shots Zane! A buddy of mine who works out at Lockheed said it took off at about 11:00 this morning. Must have been a sight to see in person...

I'd love to see that thing. I have seen the 747, but never with the shuttle on it.

Funny, but I'll bet after the Wright's changed to fresh knickers they'd have marched right out and
filed a patent infringement lawsuit on them too! :shock: Why let Glen Curtiss and the rest have all the fun? :wink:

Nice pics Ztex!

Wow!!!

Nice shots! Did you position yourself there or just get lucky? Great location for the shots.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaang, Zane :!: :shock:. I am insanely jealous :!: Great shots :D

Some 'Mistel' ;)

Good pics.

Thanks for the kind comments. I sure like this new DSLR!

I picked a spot, with several hundred others, that I thought would offer the best view. It worked out well!

Fantastic Pictures! Enjoy them and take every opportunity you can to see the Shuttle. In a couple of years it will all be over and there will never be anything like it again in our lifetimes... :cry:

Great shots! :shock:

I am working on a model of the 747 and shuttle right now... These should be very helpful.

When I heard on the news yesterday that the Shuttle had made a stop in Ft. Worth, my first thought was "I wonder if Zane got any pictures" :lol:
