Thanks!

Well, we don't think of it as such. The location I chose was atop a local ridge, about 100ft higher in elevation than my house.

But I flew the Cardinal to Pittsburgh the other day and was reminded of how un-flat much of the rest of Pennsylvania is compared to Western Montgomery County. Especially around, say, Altoona.

On the other hand, Gwennie, who mostly grew up in Chicagoland, finds this area rather bumpy.

Been there, done that. Unfortunately the launch was from 39B not 39A - which means 8 miles not 3. It was loud, but not as loud as I've heard it is from 3 miles - I hear that the at 3 miles, it's nearly painful

You can check it out with a decent telescope from my house.

:eek:

For those of you that wish they could get close to the launch...
