Obvious fakes, man; there's no stars in the pictures, man...those were taken in a movie set in Burbank by the CIA...you're being fooled by the man, man, the Military Industrial Complex, the Tri Lateral Commission, Skull and Bones, the Bushistas...
Great pics...love the sun shades over the cockpit windows.

Not sure, but I think it is the island of Majorca on the left, and the island of Menorca on the right. City of Palma in the big bay, and the airport is in the correct location too.
Just a guess..... |

Marc, these are fantastic.
You know after looking at these guys hanging on, I would think that NASA would have colored the handhold locations a bright or obvious distinguishing color. As it is they could grab almost anything and even pry something loose. I do see they hold those copper colored tubular structures. Maybe one of our graphic guys could super impose with some bright neon. Thanks Bob 73.5T

You know, I'm not really that patriotic and wouldn't call myself a flag-waver but I think it is pretty damn cool that as a country we have the technological wherewithal and moxie (and, as the man said in the Right Stuff : "Funding") to be able to pull that kinda schit off!
Very cool pics, thanks for sharing!
