I remember doing a book report and building a paper-and-cardboard model of
the B-70 in 4th grade, circa 1979...there was a book on it in the school library. Of course by the time I got to it the B70 program was no longer around. Never saw an SR-71 in flight but I did see the one (amongst a lot of other really neat stuff) at the American Air Museum at Duxford, UK a couple years ago. The final flight crew had signed all their names on the inside of the forward landing gear door. http://aam.iwm.org.uk/server/show/ConWebDoc.1105 "Lon" > wrote in message ... > > Coolest two ordinary craft I was ever lucky enough to see airborne > were the B-70 and the first semi-public showing of the MickeyDee > F15.

Can you provide me reference to this ...I've heard otherwise from a number
of sources. I've heard that Eisenhower was aware of and supported the creation of the U2 as early as 1954. "L.W.

Like pretty much everything non-Jeep, the only evidence he could
provide would be written on a small roll of soft paper that has convenient perforations allowing it to be separated into sheets as needed. Now granted the CIA may not be the best source of information, but their declassified U2 project report notes that Eisenhower was aware of the flights from the beginning [1956] but was against them due to the risks involved. A similar claim was made by Harry Stine, who would be suspected of knowing... griffin proclaimed: > Can you provide me reference to this ...I've heard otherwise from a number > of sources.

I remember Eisenhower going on television and saying it was not
ours. God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O http://www.billhughes.com/ griffin wrote: > > Can you provide me reference to this ...I've heard otherwise from a number > of sources. I've heard that Eisenhower was aware of and supported the > creation of the U2 as early as 1954. |

Much later Eisenhower apologized to the Americans:
