re: Picture of a space shuttle leaving Earth, taken by NASA

So that particular image wasn't taken from a commercial aircraft like so many were from approx 30 miles away. What makes you think that FAA airspace restrictions didn't apply to an astronaut in a T-38 training aircraft? This proves nothing WRT your insistence that someone on a commercial aircraft cannot get a shot like this within around 30-40 miles of the pad.
Not Google. I happened to work with a bunch of those guys though.
No, but I will argue points and back it up with data, something that engineers typically are used to doing. So you parrot back part of what we know that's true and present conclusions that are incorrect and not backed up with data while relying on your repeated condescending tone when you know nothing about me. Not that it would matter though, I could list off specific qualifications and it would make no difference to you.

No, I wasn't USA - they didn't exist when Shuttle first flew (I guess your google search failed you again).

Don't try to lecture me on the 3 axes - I worked for the pre-eminent aerospace company in the world for >20 years - your argument on the roll program is a cut and paste of topics you don't understand at an entry level. All 3 axes determine the ascent profile but - again - the roll program is executed EXCLUSIVELY to allow gravity to feed the SSMEs.
