What an AWESOME liftoff - the sun still shone on the smoke trail - that was orange - and seeing her all the way through SRB separation. I've got some LONG range pics from Palm Beach - I'll try and get them on later this evening.

As an aside - I had my scanner on and there was a flight departing PBI - tower told them to look to the left for the plume just before he handed them over to departure - so - I was thinking - what's the next line after telling them about it???

Maintain visual separation??
Caution - wake turbulence - departing Shuttle???
