This kind of fascinating nostalgia keeps my mind from turning to mush during repeated build and analyze cycles at work so I thought I'd share!

Awesome video... the very beginning of that (with the FAA logo) made me reallly think of how nasty and old our facility is.... The break room door still bears this name today lol

I didn't expect to watch this whole thing, but it was pretty engrossing! Thanks for the link.
