Drone is at Wright-Patterson, too

Mike,

3-4 years ago there was a second Blackbird and a drone at WPAFB, over in the remote hangar along with the various Air Force One birds on display and in various stages of restoration.

To All:

It is well worth the day trip to the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio -- It's about twice the size of the Air & Space Museum at The Smithsonian. Even if you can't get a discount flight into Dayton itself, it's only an hour drive from Columbus and Cincinnati, and a 90 minute drive from Indy.

Also, there is an extensively documented Blackbird page on Wikipedia that (surprise!) appears to actually be pretty accurate.
