Selected Activities of Interest

I can guarantee anyone planning on applying from here won't get in. Area 51 is all just black projects anyway, nothing to do with UFO's. I would expect aliens to hate us though, since most of the messages being beamed up into space are troll profanities.

Oof... $41M
Canadian computer/electronics tech, looking for contract work in Nevada.
Wonder if I could get a piece of that.

Speaking of 645 AESG, this looks like a good read:

The History of BIG SAFARI

If you go to the Archway website, their is a more affordable ebook. [Not sure about the ATS rules on mentioning pricing.] Archway is a self publishing outlet of Simon and Schuster. I assume that means no editor to do fact checking. Still the book is probably worth the read. It has to be better than piecing together all the dubious tidbits that have been released over the years.

Referencing my posts earlier in this thread:

Post on Boeing 988-122

Boeing/Lockheed Martin Strike Platform

- Team: Boeing St. Louis (prime)/Lockheed Fort Worth (using Boeing Seattle original 988-122 design)
- Spotted over Wichita, KS in spring 2014.
- A-12 Avenger heritage.
- Boeing St. Louis lead System Integrator.
- No canard, pure spanloader - higher takeoff speeds required.
- Lower quarter chord sweep and slight area ruling to enable transonic performance.
- Two below-chine, ram-air, serpentine, low distortion inlets into inlet duct, feeding two turbofan engines.
- Single centerline rotary weapon bay.

I posted on this in another thread in this forum, but am having doubts of it's relation to LRS-B. According to the contracts, it appears it is Navy related. Could this be the return of the A-12 Avenger?

I can't imagine why the Chinese would be interested in a train route that connects Palmdale and Las Vegas ; )

China Railway International and XpressWest to Develop Nevada - California High Speed Train

a reply to: TAGBOARD

That does feed a good conspiracy theory, but Palmdale ia one of the end of the lines for the Metroliner. Vegas always wanted a LA to Vegas train on order to empty the pockets of Californians.

Victorville is supposedly the other end of the line, though I have never seen myself. (It is hard to keep track of which trains are real versus virtual.)

A fair amount of spook stuff between Palmdale and Victorville.
