As I said, the Antelope Valley is very much aerospace central for major manufacturers, the military, and now and a civilian spaceport. Sometimes I am surprised to see some amazing aircraft being put through their paces in the clear blue skies over the northern valley. Here I spotted a V-22 Osprey, which is an amazing VSTOL (verticle/short takeoff and landing) tiltrotor aircraft being tested for the Marines and the Airforce. Those props are 38 feet in diameter!
