    X-15 Manuscript

    “X-15: WINGS INTO SPACE, Flying the First Reusable Spacecraft” by Michelle Evans University of Nebraska Press, Outward Odyssey series © 2012 In the Footsteps of the X-15 The primary place associated with the X-15 is Edwards AFB, California. However, there are many other locations where you can directly see the areas the rocket planes flew and landed, where men tracked them through the upper atmosphere and beyond, to find the surviving aircraft today, and where you may pay your respects to some of the men who made the world’s first reusable spacecraft possible. This appendix provides information on disposition of the various aircraft, engines, and mockups, as well as a tour itinerary for those interested in following the footsteps of the X-15. Beside making an excellent historic multi-day field trip for a group from scout - ing or as a school project, this tour is perfect for anyone with a bit of adventure and ex - ploration in their soul. The full tour can comfortably take a week or more, depending on how much time is spent at various locations and taking in the surrounding areas. Some sections, such as Palmdale/Lancaster to Cuddeback Dry Lake, then on to the Mike Adams memorial, may be accomplished in a single day for short excursions. 1. DISPOSITION OF ARTIFACTS Three X-15s were built by North American Aviation. The plant was at the southeast cor - ner of Los Angeles International Airport, which is now the location of the airport’s cargo terminal, near the intersection of Imperial Highway and Aviation Boulevard.
