If the Delta 4 launch goes as planned it will fly right over the Stress Free tomorrow morning between 9 and 920.

Went to Sioux Falls last Fri; they were getting ready for Thunderbirds airshow.  Got a look at all the practice while bicycling.  Freaked a bit when a big C-17 flew down the runway, then banked (my wife swears on purpose) and went right over us at a couple hundred feet altitude.  That is one huge aircraft.

Planned on posting some nice pics of the launch but cloud cover completely blocked out Canaveral. Heard the roar of the engines and never saw anything.
