The first day I showed up for work there, I commented that I have never seen so many bombs and LARGE no-smoking signs in one spot before. The idiot I came with lighted his cigarette believing that the signs were just a suggestion. He was arrested on the spot. :-)
This link points to a sight where a plane flying at 9000 feet saw a white hot chunk of ship as big as a house come flying past them - headed up! Interesting site for anyone unfamiliar with the story.
Best wishes
