Sorry, but the initial U-2 airframe is a late 1950s product. I saw my first U-2, up close, in-flight, as it made its approach to the runway at Howard AFB, June 1962.

My mother and I ended up talking to some uniformed AF officers shortly thereafter - it took a while to convince them that we were sea shell collectors.
