I made a little 'discovery' this past weekend during a road trip. There is a Nike-Ajax perched on its tail by the side of the road in Burnet, Texas. While it is not painted in any authentic scheme, at least it appears to be accessible for pix of detail features and scale measurements. Didn't stop on this trip due to schedule and weather, but now that I know it's there I am gonna have to make plans.
My qstn to you guys: are there any requests out there for photos or measurements that I might be able to provide? (This thing is sitting still, so I ought to be able to get a picture with my digital cam.) I realize this missile design has been around about as long as I have (yes, save your posts, it's old) and has probably already been covered by gobs of data hounds, but just in case anyone is looking for more...
It looks like we will be making this drive every so often for the next four years (daughter now in school in San Antonio) so I expect to be able to stop and see it once in a while. Post your reqsts and I will see what I can do. I will be checking it over 'up close' on my next trip.
