IMO the best looking jet ever built.

Always looked like it was going 2+ sitting in the chocks, pure sex

Time to get out your excavating tools !! B/N 156615 Baugher has next to zippo on the history, who was she with (RVAH)? The Museum site says it made the last landing aboard the U.S.S. Ranger in 1979.
Worked with a guy about 200 years ago on the very first B-1A who was a brown shirt in Heavy 12 and he said that a LOT of the Viggie systems designs and layouts made the jump to the B-1.

That is great news... both for the aircraft and the museum.

I've read that some of the XB-70 lessons for high speed structures went into the A-5.
