for 10 minutes to take this! |

get photos clear of people here. |

had a huge presence here. It provided all the sound equipment for speeches
on the site. |
US
Flying magazine's massive stand where they sold books, magazines, t-shirts
and so much more. |

 |
| GlobalFlyer
seems so fragile yet it already holds the world record for the longest
continuous flight. Why don't governments sponsor more private enterprise
efforts? |
Virgin
Atlantic GlobalFlyer will be making
a much longer flight next year, 1.5 times around the world if Steve Fossett
can work out how to get some sleep! |

 |
| You
cannot see this aircraft until it is very close to you. |
