beskrivelse:
Edwards AFB Runway 5 on Rogers Dry Lake — at Edwards Air Force Base in the Mojave Desert, California.
- Maintenance vehicles cross the end of Runway 5R/23L on Rogers Dry Lake. Runway 5 isn't the fifth runway on Edwards; at heading 50° it's the right runway and at heading 230° it's the left runway.
- The dry lake, which covers more than 60 square miles, has 17 runways that provide ample landing space for test aircraft, space shuttles and aircraft unable to make a normal landing due to damage or equipment failure.
- Rogers Dry Lake is a National Historic Landmark, and on the National Register of Historic Places in Kern County.
