One at the SAC museum.

The year they brought it in, Dad and went to the old museum right off the Offut runway.

We walked all around that bird. I got to touch the wings.

She is now enclosed, safe from the Nebraska winters, in a great museum in Ashland.

Never saw one fly, but I love those

There's also one at Robins AFB. While they were building the museum, the SR-71, a U-2 and several other planes were just stored outside. One could walk right up and touch them.

Which was kinda funny to me because just a few years earlier, right there at Robins, there was an air show with an SR-71 on display, roped off, couple of guys with M-16s, and a sign saying 'Use of Deadly Force Authorized Beyond This Point'.
