Good one! I wonder what the no fly zone restrictions are for hang gliders around Pad 39A and B!

About a 20-mile restriction around KSC during the countdown phase. He looks as if he's about as far away as Orlando - which is a fair enough drive from KSC!

Cheers Brian. Would he be at least 20 miles away there? Doesn't look it...
