I've been to that museum before. It's like a smaller version of the Smithsonian Air and Space in DC.
I got lost in the Smithsonian once for a whole day. Amazing.JD

I've been to that museum before. It's like a smaller version of the Smithsonian Air and Space in
DC. I got lost in the Smithsonian once for a whole day. Amazing.It was a mighty impressive aircraft. I had an in-law who worked on project Archangel (awa: Corona
and Wild Boar). We use to shoot the [censored] about what it could and couldn't do. Considering that the
tooling for the aircraft was destroyed in the 60's, it was funny that we were using data collected
by them in the 90's. Too bad that the SR-71 is now just a test bed. Oh well all things change ...
tomorrow will be my last day/night on the government take. Time to let my hair grow, hasn't been
over a 1/2 inch since ~1984.sr-71.orgcockpitdiagrams.htmOpen ↗

The last time I was in the Smithsonian was 1984, so it wasn't hanging from the ceiling just yet.

Sounds like a great idea. I'll be on my way here as soon as the cereal settles a bit. If you find
yourself out this way, look me up. I'm not too hard to find.JD

one of their bikes) to an F-22 body.In 1983 and again in 1992. JFKSWC HALO School used to use the wind tunnel at Wright-Pat and we
would run their drops there. I have a friend who lives in Fairborn and went on a visit there when I
lived in NC.Quoted message said:
The bike was actually very cool. Extreme metalwork detail on the chainguard.
I missed that, DOH.

My Grandfather was the Master Tool Maker at the Sikorski helicopter plant, in CT. He used to get to
talking after a few drinks.......
