NASA and the FAA have announced "training and photographic flights" over the Los Angeles area on Saturday at 8 a.m.. The NASA jets, a T-38 and an F-18, will fly at about 1,500 feet above the ground. If weather delays the flights, they are scheduled to try again at 12:30. It's being reported this is part of preparations for the Space Shuttle Endeavour to be flown fly into LAX on Sept. 20.
