Default Shuttle Transport Story

I just got this from a friend. I missed the whole thing, even though I
live near Daytona Beach. I did hear about it later that evening, though.

It sounds as if the B747 has its hands full carrying the Shuttle.

----------story snipped for brevity-------------

The shuttle transport may very well have flown some distance along the beach
for some reason and someone might actually use "Triple Nickel" as a handle;
but as to most of this story... let me put it this way: If I actually
believed "The Futher Adventures of Han Solo (and Chewbacca)", then I might
be getting close to believing this shuttle transport story.
