Default Re: A Rare Glimpse of the SR-71 Blackbird

There is a beautiful SR-71 in the lobby of the Strategic Air Command museum at mile marker 426 on I-80 in Nebraska. I had the privilege of witnessing that magnificent bird make its final approach at Offutt Air Force Base for its delivery to the museum. It made about three passes then a perfect landing. I still love to drop in the museum and see all the great planes that kept us free during the Cold War.
