Just wondering what is the status of this B-47. The last time it was mentioned here maybe a year ago it was headed for the nuclear museumin New Mexico. Anyone have any updates?

I was at the Nuclear Museum in late 2012 and there was no B-47 there. I enjoyed viewing the B-29 "Duke of Albuquerque" and a B-52, plus an A-7 and F-105. I can't speak about the future location of the Stratojet, though.

Here's what I saw at the museum in Albuquerque ...

I saw the B-29 when it was displayed at Kirtland a few years ago (before the move to the new museum grounds). It was in pretty poor condition...
