Are you in the military or do you have a great view off of base? I'm about an hour away from NAS Fallon, AKA Top Gun, but i'm sure i'd be escorted out of the vicinity, probably in handcuffs, since i'm not military.

Ellington Field is not a currently active air force base. It is more of a mixed use airport used by the military, commercial, NASA and general aviation. It may even end up a commercial spaceport if the Dream Chaser pans out.

This is all shot off base!

As for Fallon! it will be easier to get with the Public relation of the base since spotting outside FAllon is not advisable! although I have done it before!
