I saw the RB-57 sitting there.
Think they'd mind if we borrowed it, and fixed it up?
They were active out at Malmstrom AFB, in Montana, when I was stationed there in the 70's.

NASA still flies a couple of them ... I'm no pilot, but I'd be happy to sit in the back and run the sensors!

Take another look ... there's an early model B-57, with the dinky trapeziodal wings, to the right of the RB-57.

I noticed a bunch of what looked to be fairly good size planes set out in pieces.......toward the right side of the screen, I think. Do they use these "bones" for spare parts or something?
