I've been there before, when I was a kid. They had the only one of these left (Still do. I checked):

Valkyrie

Oh, yes! Walking under the Valkyrie was always impressive.

IIRC, they only built two. One crashed during a photo shoot, when an F-104 probably got caught in it's wingtip vortexes and crashed into it. The other is at the USAF Museum, WPAFB, OH.

I've seen it several times, all of them while it was parked outside, and it's an impressive beastie.
