    This is pretty damned awesome.... enjoy it

    */Fasten your seat belt  for a fantastic ride/*.

    This video is a  once in a lifetime experience of a British civilian
    getting
    a  flight at over 70,000 ft. in a U-2 spy plane.  Please note at
      the take-off
    the assist wheels on the outer edges of the wings  which drop off upon
    take-off.   The wings are so  long that they need temporary support
    until
    lift-off.  What  is not shown is at the landing the plane actually
    slows to  a
    small enough speed that two guys are actually able to grab the  wing
    tips and
    put those assist wheels back on.

    The  civilian getting the ride is the host of the car show*Top Gear
    on BBC****(James  May)*
    shown  through Europe at  9:00 pm Sunday night in Belgium.  The
    views are
    spectacular  as the U-2 flies at altitudes which constitute "SPACE."

    Use your full  screen and sound as this is a high-quality film clip, 10
    minutes  long.
