Interesting, but they got it all wrong. A trailer is supposed to go behind not inside.

Hi Rivka -- that's exactly what we want to see -- more documentation of how these are being used. Nice photo set! A couple years back there was an an item in the federal budget to replace them with some unique, custom designed non-Airstream units. The price was huge. Don't know where that stands right now.

Just an FYI for those a little sensitive to such things. There's some pretty, umm, "racy" stuff at the bottom of that page.

Just curious why they had the nose of a 747 on the last shot.

A cleaner link without the more 'charged' content.

Rivka - might as well leave them both up. Who knows how long either of these links will remain active? Better chances by leaving them both...
