Remarks: Atlantis" blasts off on her 32nd mission (since she will be the stand by rescue ship for the last official mission, an act of the President and/or Congress allowed NASA let her fly her for one last time in 2011 as STS-135). Here the water clouds and the SRB exhaust smoke have rapidly consumed the LC-39A complex and spread about .5 miles end to end in seconds. White clouds are water vapor, the brown stuff will kill you if the sound does not. At 3 miles the vibrations & noise are still very loud.
Remarks: Fyling in an 4-ship formation with Yak-50 & Yak-52 behind the Photocrew Skyvan. You can Spot RA-3326K, G-YYAK, the wing of RA-3085K and the Yak-50 was RA-3446K.
