me: idk what to do while sick
youtube: do you want to watch an hour long professionally animated deep dive into explaining what makes the lockheed sr-71 blackbird so cool
me: wellllllllll shucks i reckon i could be inclined
I swear I love the SR-71 so much and it's only made cooler because they made it in a cave with a box of scraps. I really need to get my shop open so I can post up tribute items, retvrn to the wireframe blackbird apparel. concorde would be lovely as well
I have a soft spot for it as well. My family is big into aviation, and we went to see the “Bye Bye Blackbird” exhibit when they finally completely phased it out.
Planes were a big thing for us. I even went to aviation camp! But that got REALLY militaristic really fast 😬
This was 10 years ago and the SR-71 could have been a bit more visible, but I think I stood and stared at it for an hour until my family made me move on.
The SR-71 is right when you walk in. But that building also houses the Discovery. You're probably too young to have much attachment to the Shuttle Program though.
i love going down there, I need to take the new camera for a spin, maybe I can finally get some good shots of everything else now that I have MUCH better low light capabilities (they wouldn't let me bring my tripod in last time lmao)
