My unofficial Fly Baby Home Page now has a new abode:

http://www.bowersflybaby.com/

Thanks to the good offices of Javier Henderson, it's got a lot more room to
spread out in. This allowed me to do a major reorganization, and do stuff
like have thumbnail links to all the pictures.

Remember: Wood is Good! :-)

Two choices:

1. Around my neck, to soak up any spilled Tang.

2. Where it's most needed, considering the airplane doesn't have a relief
tube....

How did you hold your breath that long?

Now do it with 3 people, crew and passengers, twice in one week in the same
craft and the x-prize is yours.

I can get enough energy for TLI without JATO: I merely stay out past 0300
without calling home then show up "a tad soggy", as it were. ZOOM, off I go
to the moon!

The good thing is the bruises and swelling heal by the time I get back...
