Captain Chuck goes ballistic<< Back to archives | Tuesday, June 12, 2007)
Actually, weightless - in that special aircraft that took Stephen Hawking for his weightless sub orbital zero G ride. Chuck Robinson, co-owner of Village Books, won a contest from a book publisher and got the ride as the prize. One of the other persons floating around the inside of the converted jet airliner was Stephen’s daughter Lucy. Chuck said the whole experience was great fun. Apparently the plane does several roller coaster like loops during the ride and the weightless portion lasts up to a minute or longer. All a long way from our quiet experiences in historic Fairhaven. Welcome back, Chuck. |
