There is also one on display at the main entrance to the San Diego Air and
Space museum. *That one was the first one I ever saw, other than pictures.

I was watching a doc. on some Marvel Channel, abotu the blackbird, and
it was fascenating to hear that pilots were asked why they didnt' ahve
any armaments. "Well, when you're flying higher and faster than a
missle can reach you, then what would be the point? Besides, we're
flying faster than a 30.06 calibre bullet, so a gun would be usless."

*gulp*
