New York Times:
On Wednesday morning, three vintage warplanes were trussed up and hoisted over the port side of the ship for a barge ride up the Hudson River to a museum near Schenectady, N.Y. They had to go to make way for the new star attraction: Enterprise, the prototype for the space shuttles that is due to arrive in New York City next week.
Those lucky enough to live in Washington DC saw the Shuttle Discovery fly over earlier this week. The Enterprise will do her own New York City fly over on Monday, weather permitting.
I’m going to be in NYC next week and am looking forward to seeing the fly over. Unfortunately, the weather is supposed to be pretty crappy on Monday, so who knows if they’ll even do it. We shall see I suppose.
