A visitor from Canada posted Sun August 16, 2009: Excellent details hence the 5 stars!
A visitor from Poland posted Fri February 1, 2008: Shuttle looks a bit "exhausted" but again... its just the look :) Inside - clear and fully functional heart :P
A visitor from United States posted Thu December 20, 2007: You have somehow managed to capture how graceful the shuttle can look...
A visitor from United States posted Sat July 14, 2007: I think the shuttle needs some paint. :-) Great view. Enjoyed showing my kids.
A visitor from United States posted Mon July 9, 2007: I think this is a great angle. Most shots of the 747/shuttle combination are side profile or wideshots. This level of detail is not seen.
A visitor from United States posted Sat April 29, 2006: My uncle has flown on the shuttle 5 times, once on Discovery.
A visitor from United States posted Tue February 14, 2006: This is a great picture of a space shuttle getting a piggy ride from a boeing747
A visitor from United States posted Mon February 13, 2006: Wow..still amazing to remember this.
A visitor from United States posted Sat January 21, 2006: Cool photo... Sadly time for a new shuttle. It's starting to seem suicidal just looking at the photo to go in orbit in that thing.
A visitor from Netherlands posted Wed August 24, 2005: The shape of the two flight decks on top of each other is amazing.
A visitor from United States posted Tue August 23, 2005: Two of the largest birds of our times! They are together!! Light, angle, details and almost a very good shot. Suresh, thanks.
A visitor from Viet Nam posted Tue August 23, 2005: A very impressive nose. Thanks for the photo!
A visitor from United States posted Mon August 22, 2005: Amazing contrast between the aircraft- who knew that the aging humpback AA 747 could look better than the orbiter?
A visitor from South Africa posted Mon August 22, 2005: Thanks for this close-up. It shows what heat this craft had to endure.
A visitor from Uruguay posted Mon August 22, 2005: We can say these two are the enormous classics the lighting in this photo is great as you can perfectly see the difference in the skins a smooth Jumbo versus a harshly used Discovery
A visitor from United States posted Mon August 22, 2005: Good light, and detailed
A visitor from Israel posted Mon August 22, 2005: The combination between these two giants is great !
A visitor from Italy posted Mon August 22, 2005: Beautiful birds!
A visitor from United States posted Mon August 22, 2005: Fantastic clarity on this photo. The detail is extraordinary. Thank you!
A visitor from Bulgaria posted Mon August 22, 2005: Great! Isn't those two of the greatest noses in aviation history :)
A visitor from United States posted Mon August 22, 2005: Suresh, you were just all over the Shutle and provided Airliners.net with some amazing, much needed, daytime photos of this bird. I'd like to thank you! Your creativity shows with this angle. I'm glad it was accepted into the database!
