Title: Vomit Comet hurls into sky for final time Post by: Kenrick on November 02, 2004, 10:40:06 AM http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6383549/
Nothing terribly interesting, but I couldn't help but highlight this one sentence: Quote Yaniac proudly told those who attended a post-flight briefing that over the years, the plane's crew had cleaned up at least 285 gallons of vomit. That's a hell of a frat party.

For $3k you get 13 hops to weightlessness. I believe the first flight is already sold out and it's based in Texas.
