landing site in White Sands Missile Range. This is one of five possible landing sites that Boeing is considering for Starliner missions and one of two such sites within the White Sands Missile Range, Barrett said. Other options include the Dugway Proving Ground in Utah, the Willcox Playa in Arizona and Edwards Air Force Base in California.
Mike's reaction on getting the mission. :-)
So, the pad abort takes place at White Sands and comes down in the desert? No proof of (salt) water-worthiness after sustaining those loads by launching off/near LC-41 and landing in the drink?
I was more concerned with sustained (>momentary) acceleration loads beyond those for launch.
