Chuck yeager, the first man to break the sound barrier. Edwards airforce base for having the original landing site of the space shuttle. also used to have skunkworks but dunno what happened to them.

Edwards is where the nation's first jet- and rocket-powered flights took place. It is where men and aircraft first exceeded Mach 1. 2, 3. 4. 5 and 6. and where they first flew above 100.000, 200.000 and 300,000 feet. The famed North American rocket aircraft set altitude and speed marks of 354,200 feet and 4. 520 mph that still stands for winged aircraft.

They have helped make the B-2 bomber, the sr-71, the f-22 and many others.

They have a kickass airshow every year. My fve, the A-10. You dont know what those things are capable of until you see then in action. ed:
