Remarks: After dropping off Shuttle Endeavour at LAX, N905NA came back to Ellington for the Wings Over Houston 2012 air show. Ever since it has been parked in front of the Texas Flying Legends Museum. Rumors has it that it won't fly again, and will become an exhibit somewhere in Houston.
Notice the warbirds inside the Texas Flying Legends Museum, including the famous B-25 "Betty's Dream."
Special thanks to Frank Lemus for flying the airplane while I was taking this picture.
