I will be out in the area of Edwards AFB later this month. Are there any visitor facilities or public exhibits there that would make a detour worthwhile? Thanks in advance for any replies. Bob Atkins att!mhuxo!rma

The tour includes a film that describes the various flight research projects that have been done here (about 30 min) and a tour of the main hangar that houses the current research vehicles (about 30-40 min). After the tour, you are free to check out the gift shop which also contains several exhibits about NASA's flight research history. Steve belle@skipper.dfrf.nasa.gov
