Thursday
From the moment I saw the sky, I knew we were in for some delays this morning.
"Come on boys, it should be light, we dumped all the data. Can't you guys work any faster"!
I lost a screw from my shades which caused the arm to fall beneath the payload racks so I bought these beauties in the hopes of robbing parts, no luck.
Jim and John reinstall the computer.
Rain and poor visibility caused us to abort the morning mission. We went to the NRL field office to review the data from previous missions. Jeff describes captured imagery.
More imagery with Mary and John.
This is the view from the deck at imagery central. How would you like this thing honking it's horn all day and night.
After the rain showers stopped, we headed back to the field to move the plane to a 110 volt power source. Jeff aligns a mirror as John focus' the camera inside the aircraft.
John reviewing camera images for focus.
While we do important stuff like forage for dinner.
After the focus exercise Jim moves Annie back to the parking area for the night.
Back at the ranch.
We almost had another dinner guest.
