AA batteries and snipers, they are on the ajacent buildings as well. its not exactly a "well guarded" secret as you can see them if you visit the whitehouse, they are the guys dressed in black on the roof w/ rifles.

http://pics.bbzzdd.com/users/LordMorpheus/halfplane.JPG

a half of a plane I found at Lambert Field in Saint Louis.

Also at the Dallas international airport, there is one plane in flight that shows up three times (the shadow shows up four times.)

The plane that was taking the photographs must have been paralelling the jetliner . . . hehe Its just North West of the airport, more north than west, if you want to go looking for it.

Something interesting I created for Google Earth. Just save this file and open it. Then click on the placemarks to expand.

Just testing waters before I start a thread with this.
