Aero-Linx: Hayabusa Re-Entry
Airborne Observing Campaign
This site is dedicated to the Airborne observation of the
Hayabusa Sample Return Capsule re-entry over Australia, using a
wide array of imaging and spectrographic cameras. The Hayabusa
capsule and bus entered the Earth's atmosphere over Woomera at
11:21 pm local time (6:51 PDT) Sunday, June 13th, 2010...
"It is surprising to me that ALPA would turn down this
generous offer that would have paid senior captains over $200,000
per year... I am concerned that our employees are being used
in a broader political game that may not be in the interest of
their careers or their families. This deal should be about Spirit
and Spirit only, not about the pilots whose contracts are under
negotiation at other ALPA carriers, but it would appear other
forces have intervened."

ALPA.
