Has anyone heard the rumor that the Fossett team will be doing low speed parachute testing either today or tomorrow at El Mirage?

apparently they're stuck at the border with a wide load, and no permits...
a little birdie told me...

They showed up but I don't think they ever got the car started. I went out to the lakebed after work and hung out for a few when they were going to do some low speed fam runs for the driver.

Who's the driver -- Land Speed?

No permits? I think someone needs a better bird. There are a total of 7 permits and 4 insurance forms to move the team interstate, all of which were in hand on Sunday. The hold up was for a trailer inspection that Cal Trans decided we needed on Monday after we had already gotten a permit without one the first time.
More later.

LOL, the inspector was polite, professional and on time. He even re-arranged his schedule for the week just to fit us in. If we had known about the need in advance, it would have been a non-issue.
