Flag on the VAB

[georgeniebling]

I noticed in the Roll-out Video that the US Flag on the side of the VAB has some damage (hurricane, I suppose).<br /><br />Anyone know when the rest of the flag might be repainted onto the building?<br /><br />Just as a point of national pride as we re-enter space on our own two SRB's, as it were ....

Got to finish it before the next one hits, lol. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width:271px;background-color:#FFF;border:1pxsolid#999"><tr><td colspan="2"><div style="height:35px"><img src="http://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/htmlSticker1/language/www/US/MT/Three_Forks.gif" alt="" height="35" width="271" style="border:0px" /></div>

Yeah, I kind of figured something along those lines. It's just on the surface that would look like a typical gov't job. Build it up so it can be torn down, lol. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width:271px;background-color:#FFF;border:1pxsolid#999"><tr><td colspan="2"><div style="height:35px"><img src="http://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/htmlSticker1/language/www/US/MT/Three_Forks.gif" alt="" height="35" width="271" style="border:0px" /></div>

Did all the Buzzards nicely fly back out again or were they shot ?

Granted plugging the holes and replacing the panels is the highest priority with the VAB, however. It would be nice to see the American Flag intact for Discovery's flight... <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font color="#ff0000"><u><em>Don't let your sig line incite a gay thread ;>)</em></u></font> </div>

any change of a picture SG? (yeah, I know .. like when you're not doing anything else) ;-)<br />

SG do you know how the roof is coming along?

 

[georgeniebling]

You rock SG!<br /><br />Hey .... Were you at the Cape during Gemini/Apollo?<br /><br />The father of a friend of mine worked there on the emergency escape system (the guideline stuff) ....<br />
