Not the full length, I've done it about halfway in each direction but never gone from like Vancouver to TriCities.
NASA and Lockheed Martin formally debuted the agency’s X-59 quiet supersonic aircraft Friday. Using this one-of-a-kind experimental airplane, NASA aims to gather data that could revolutionize air travel, paving the way for a new generation of commercial aircraft that can travel faster than the speed of sound. “This is a major accomplishment made possible only through the hard work and ingenuity from NASA and the entire X-59 team,” said NASA Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy. “In just a few short years we’ve gone from an ambitious concept to reality. NASA’s X-59 will help change the way we travel, bringing us closer together in much less time.” Melroy and other senior officials revealed the aircraft during a ceremony hosted by prime contractor Lockheed Martin Skunk Works at its Palmdale, California facility. https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-lockheed-martin-reveal-x-59-quiet-supersonic-aircraft/ |
Saw this today, don’t ask me what it is or what they were thinking.

What else do you you do with a new style V-6 Camaro that really doesn't have any resale demand .
Another Seattle in the fog picture.
I didn't feel like this was worth starting a new thread, but it's certainly strange.
Anybody want to drop $260,000 on a Challenger? Some people have more money than brains. Sure, they're fast. But a quarter million dollars can buy (or build) a lot of things that are faster and ultimately better drivers.

Right? I'm not much into the fast car scene (I'm decently up to speed but prefer trucks/off-road all day long), and I love American vehicles, but I would never spend that much on a Challenger. I mean even the upcoming C8 ZR1 is expected to have an MSRP around $150,000. That's $110,000 buffer for options and markup.
But then again, I'd probably just put that $260,000 towards my house and be happy with the vehicles I have! lol I could do a lot without a mortgage payment!
If I had a quarter million to blow on a vehicle...Pur Sang

There are some beautiful places in the PNW... Too bad other parts of it aren't as good. Part of why I moved back here when I could have gone other places after the Army.
I've said that many times! I'm a transplant (since 2011) so it's sad to see such a beautiful state (and country
) wrecked by urbanization and people.

I lived here as a kid in the 60's and then as a teenager in the 70's before I joined the Army. Only got stationed at Ft Lewis in the 80's for 11 months. But kept coming back. It wasn't a bad place even up into the early 2000's but after that it's just gone downhill. And seeing it slowly happen has just made it worse. I started wheeling here in the mid 90's and the trails we've lost plus how they've been ruined makes me cry.
My SIL works for UPRR. When Big Boy was in West Chicago on the first tour, he was able to get Owen and I behind the ropes. That thing is huge.
All taken today, was a wild day with ever changing fog. Water had ice yesterday and was over 70 degrees temps today.
