      Seen that one and the A-12 in Mobile AL at the Alabama Memorial, but it's in the building, so no sat photos there
      “He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”

          We have the only surviving A-12/D-21 combo in existence here at the Museum of Flight. :)

          About a mile from here. There's also a separate engine on a stand as part of the display. That sucka's huge... ;)

            I also saw my first F-14 Tomcat in real life aboard the Intrepid. The Tomcat was my favorite plane ever since I was a kid after I saw "Top Gun".

              The Intrepid is a kick ass place. One of their newest acquisitions is an IAI Kfir in IAF colors with USN and USMC markings.
              Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

              Abusing Yellow is meant to be a labor of love, not something you sell to the highest bidder.
