More Blackbird Trivia

Want to see a SR71 Black Bird fly in to McMinnville OR you can also see
the
Spruce Goose

SR-71s (and variants) are all over now. Closest to me is Minnesota, but
there's one in Omaha, NE and one in Dayton, OH, too.

They've got the A-12 at the Boeing museum, and you can sit in the cockpit of
one that wrecked. It's comical...all the kids line up and fight to get into
the F-18 cockpit. The dads, having abandoned them, can be found lurking
around the Blackbird. I sat in it for awhile and got so engrossed in the
cockpit that I forgot to look out the windscreen.

And, no, I didn't not scream and holler and cry like a baby when it was my
turn to get out. But I thought about it! :

Never heard of a Boeing museum.

Maybe you mean the Museum of Flight, located at Boeing Field near Seattle?
They have one.

Yeah, sure, whatever. Pedantic Zero you are cleared to f'k off. ;

There's also the Boeing restoration facility at Paine Field. Many of the
projects that go to the BOEING MUSEUM are restored there, and admission is
free.

However, the Museum of Flight (found at Boeing Field) does have a
restoration facility at Paine Field. Maybe that's the one you're thinking
of?

Admission to the Museum of Flight is free the first Thursday of every month.
