Yuppers..... You can just imagine all those NASA and public trough
government people watching the spaceship being towed back to the hanger
by a pickup truck with a couple of average joes sitting on the
tailgate.


And not wearing white overalls etc.

I think one of the tidiest actions was when the pilot left the aircraft just a
few minutes after landing unlike 20 minutes or so while the space shuttle is
purged of poisonous gasses.

I wonder how many NASA types felt as if they were slapped.

It's just so sweet
