GoogleEarth aircraft at Palmdale

Did you ever ask your 'friend' if a 71 was lost when the bird blew up
after launch from the Cape?

My source swears it happened but?????????? Supposdly the Oxy was
burned out of air causing engine to flame out and could not be
restarted............

Strange things happen but if I were a betting man I'd put some money
on this not happening.

There are two more Blackbirds (pause for reverence) parked at the north end
of the Edwards tarmac in the NASA section. One of those birds is now at
McMinnville under the right wing of the Spruce Goose.

Speaking of Blackbirds, did you know that two of them are unaccounted
for? The Roadrunners (a fraternity of former Blackbird pilots,
crewmembers, workers, etc.) have done an excellent job of listing where
each SR-71 ever built has ended up -- and come up two short.

Rumor has it that they're still flying...but no one knows, for sure.
