     On second thought...you might imagine the reentry of STS Columbia, or 
     other vehicles which get sufficient airflow for cooling that NASA 
     finds it necessary to attach specially designed ceramic tiles for 
     protection from....guess what?
     
     Course my TRs are only a lttle slower...but the principle is the 
     same...
