I've seen lots of photos of earlier generation X-33s being worn by astronauts at work. However, I can only recall ever seeing just a couple of photos (below) of the Skywalker in action. Obviously they haven't been around for as long as the Gen 1s/2s. Has anyone spotted other pics of the Skywalker either in, about to be in, or just back from space? If so, let's see 'em

 

Hey they now put wooden doors into spaceships? It's that a cost saving measure?

 

Cost is king in the era of commercial space flight
Seems they can still afford very nice watches though!

 

lol

 

I got my X-33 as a unit buy, another guy in my unit calls the rep every few months to ask if they have turned the program back on for the Skywalker, no luck yet.

That being said the OB in HI gave him one of their Solar Impulse tours and dinner. Pretty solid considering he had only ever bought one, very discounted watch. With all the bad press the OB's have gotten about the CK2998, I like knowing how they have always taken care of both of us very well.

 

Stop confusing our East Coast US members (particularly the fishermen).

OB = Outer Banks NC.

ΩB = Omega Boutique.

Thank you!

 

I imagine the SI tour would have been a lot of fun! I'd be much more inclined to pay a premium for buying at a boutique to get access to that kind of event than some other kinds.
