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'.
