Angels and Oxcarts – Addendum

| August 18, 2013

For what it’s worth:  I’ve finished reading the material found at the link in my previous article on the subject.

Yeah, it was worth losing some sleep.  All I can say is . . . wow.  Just wow.

  • The operators:  package, granite and/or stainless, size XXL.
  • The designers and administrators:  simply magnificent.
  • The machinery:  absolutely awe-inspiring.

If you have an interest in the history of aviation, intel, or photography – you’d do a helluva lot worse than to spend a day or two reading through that material.  It’s 400 pages plus, and the material redacted amounts to maybe 5 or 6 pages – much of which is in the last appendix.

Enjoy.
