Nerd68fl - I was at Palmdale hangar and going right back. Hard to find wireless - had to drive 10 miles. Yesterday, lots of nice cars in Sanswire parking lot. (full lot!) Never saw so many cars there and activity. A DHL and mail truck yesterday at noon. The empty hangar next door had door all the way open. Could they be renting it? It always looked vacant. Something's going on! Saw several small cars from their entry road zooming towards Edwards. Couldn't get anything from security guards this time. Their white "tracking" trailer, with Sanswire emblem painted on front, and the white car that Bob Jones was driving when I met him 2 months ago, which was always parked at his office in Mojave, had been moved to Palmdale hangar. Also, new are bicycles, approximately 10, parked in front of hanger for employees. And, a sign "Crew Parking" in the parking lot with two pick-up trucks, four door, the kind used to take crews onto Edwards. Got pictures. We are parked on P Street, waiting for load. Talk later!
