EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE
Edwards AFB is the home of the Flight Test Center where the
Air Force has developed nearly every aircraft in its inventory. It
is an ideal place to test aircraft because of Rogers Dry Lake
Bed, a 44 square mile hardbed which serves as a perfect runway
for test flight programs and emergencies. America's first jet flight,
the first supersonic flight, world speed records, and space shuttle
tests and landings have all been conducted at Edwards AFB.
