Thanks Glenn. I was lucky enough to see it fly at the Mildenhall Air Fete in Suffolk, England, about 25 years ago. It really was like something from the future and is incredible to believe it was developed in the 1960's. It's just not the same seeing them on static display in a museum!

That is awesome Barry - I've only seen them on the ground. Glad you had that experience!

I'm sure I've got some old photos so will scan them in if they're ok.

Great bird, Barry! Well done, I've mine still on the bench, decals and pilots still missing.

50 years old, and it still looks like something from outer space.. I used to fly one of these in MS Flight Simulator. Only then you get a sense of how fast the Blackbird really is.. I've crossed most of Western Europe in the space of a few minutes
