There is an SR71B at the Air Zoo in my town, quite something to stand next to and look at.

I remember when one came to the CNE Air Show. I was delivering newspapers at the time, so it would have been between 75 and 81, likely closer to the end of that period. Just remember hearing the noise and seeing that great triangular shape come screaming low over the houses. AWESOME sight.

Thanked: 237I just love the fact is was designed and built using U.S. Customery Units, not S.I. I wish I could have seen them in action, the technology is mind boggling!
