Mercury to Lose Lake X
 

I recently heard (fromt an excellent source) that Mercury will be losing its lease at Lake X next year. I'm sure they will find a perfectly good replacement test site, but it was always kind of cool to read about the mysterious site.

thought mercury owned lake x and the property around it:confused:

No they dont own it. The sold it about 20yrs ago and have been leasing it.

I heard they have a new Lake X around panama city.

I read the same thing. I wonder if the new place will be a secret stomping ground also.

the kirchman corp owns the property. They are here in Orlando, it is a banking software company.

I heard that the new Lake X will be in Fountainville NC, Also heard that merc has a piece of Fountains Business.

I'll bet the deal was Carl owned the lake and leased it to Merc. When he died estate sold the property.

caferacer is correct.
This news of Lake X was mentioned 2 years ago on here...thats why they scrambled to get in bed with Fountain $.
They will be a strong team together.

Mercury's new test facility will be near Panama City Beach , FL . I wonder if they will try and take ELVIS with them? BH
