Would love to see some of those outside. Now if they would just fire up the XB-70 and do a fast taxi over..... :wink:

Some photos of the move here as well:

I'm more worried about them breaking the nose wheel assembly again.

I'm looking forward to seeing this new building next year. Hopefully there will be an improvement in the lighting.

Maybe, but it looks pretty dark. http://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Upcomi ... 2001296794

That lighting looks like an improvement over what they have in the previously constructed building.

Once the "X" planes and the presidential aircraft are moved into the new building, what will go into the hangars where these planes are now parked? Hopefully they will take the C-60 Lodestar out of the Airpark and put it in there.
