Heard a similar story here from a fellow Jeep Club member. Out in the desert a Jeep rolled, driver was injured, and had to be rushed to the hospital. A couple folks stayed behind to watch over the rolled Jeep when a group drove up. One said they were gonna take the wheels and the watchers had to draw on them to prevent the Jeep from getting stripped.
Finally finished Lego art set. After the stupid cat messed it up several times.
I love all things SR71, such a badass plane.
One of my favorite details about it is that it leaks fuel before takeoff because the plane has to be able to expand in length by up to 9 inches due to the heat it generated in supersonic flight.
Its a great story... I had heard that they set up shell corporations in other countries so that Russia wouldnt know we were importing so much titanium from them.
@GregBelleville you guys should both read Skunk Works by Ben R. Rich. It covers the development of the U2, SR71, and F117. Some fascinating info if you're into that stuff.
If you grew up in Socal like I did, these are a familiar sight.

Something about defects in newly installed equipment - I didn't really pursue it.
Something failed at the plant, unfortunate timing I think because it was shortly after the disaster in Japan. Decided to decommission it. Seems like a step backwards but what do I know?
Last night, September 9, 2,977 drones rose over New York Harbor and formed the Twin Towers at full architectural scale.
The lights first gathered into a helix, swirling upward before assembling into the shape of the towers.
There were exactly 2,977 lights, one for every person killed in the September 11 attacks.
The installation, called “2,977 Lights Over New York Harbor,” was created for the 25th anniversary of 9/11 and shaped with input from victims’ families, survivors and first responders. Among those involved was retired FDNY firefighter Tim Brown, who lost close friends on 9/11. Three of the lights honored firefighters Chris Blackwell, Terry Hatton and Michael Lynch.
The towers eventually broke apart back into individual lights.
Might have to zoom in to see the spots of red leaves up in this little oak tree.
That's poison oak. It turns before the trees do.
It's kinda pretty like a Vegas hooker. It'll catch your eye, but you know you'd better not touch it.
