I’m of two minds about approving these sorts of comments. Gwen included a link to a pitch page for the development. On the other hand the stuff in the History of Desert Aire section is pretty interesting. So here for your use is a link to the interesting bits. http://www.desertairetoday.com/desert_aire_history.php

I reserve the right to change my mind about approving comments from people I don’t know.

Eastern Washington has some surprises that is for sure! I have a place in Desert Aire, near Mattawa, and we see the jet’s doing practice all the time, its pretty cool. Check out more info on the area at; http:/www.desertairetoday.com

Thanks for the post, looks like you were riding in style.

Gooz is on the right track. It’s the current 4-seat electronic jamming/radar killing version of the A6 Intruder: the EA6B Prowler. The whole west coat fleet of them is based in Oak Harbor on Whidbey Island.

Depending on where the little silo/shack could be a radio nav-aid. There are a gazillion of them in the back of beyond — of various kinds — and some of them have wind and/or solar back-up power.

Um — while the State of Washington has seen fit to issue me a license to commit 2-wheeled mayhem that does not mean that I am actually capable of said. But it’s a really cool car. (Hangs head in shame.)

that was an intruder. vietnam era bomber and elint aircraft. (see flight of the intruder). 260 to 261is the best stretch of road in central WA and well known to the WL CtS crowd. you should’ve taken the lower granite dam. it’s open until 5p on fridays and you can cross it.

highly recommend the spiral hwy!!!

I thought you were doing this tour on a BIKE! :(

“Oh bother!” said Poo, as he stuffed the next severed head into the burlap sack… ready to hurl the lot of them over the edge of the damn, into the rolling waters below.
