Due to high winds, the Field Lab was closed today. From the archives - on this day last year: can you name that plane? 48,60,43, .04"

  5. Wasn't that Air Force One taking off after taking President Bush home? It was kind of a guess, but I thought that Air Force One could be seen in Terlinqua that day.
