NASA day 1
San Francisco Trip

<==

The controls for a 747, with Andrew behind the wheel err.. rudder.

Coming in for a night landing at SFO.

This is a 747.

It even says so on the label down there.

And it's controlled by touch pads.

Inside the Advanced Concepts Flight Simulator, where new technologies are tested: coming to an aircraft near you!

Outside the ACFS.

Random picture of a building with huge doors originally for launching blimps.

Lookie there!

We're all going to die!

OK, so we landed in one piece.

Some reading for you.

This is Hanger One.

And that's Hanger 2.

A Map with models in front.

Uncle Bob, Daniel and I.

Look how long the Vertical Motion Simulator is!

The machinery is amazing.

Here's a model.

Here's the other side.

This is how I know the name.

The platform for cockpits.

It's tall.

7 stories.

With lots of tubes.
