    I went to HS in Fairborn, and college at Wright State. I was there when the SR-71 landed on the shortest runway it had ever attempted. Massive crowd. So cool.

    Every time I've been back I've taken a day to do the museum.

    It's grown SO much!

    Nice cinewhoop work! Also love how it snagged on a cable at one point.

    This is at Wright-Patt, correct?
    25 years and how many design changes?

    I watched the Scott Manley episode on the Dream Chaser. I couldn't believe it had so many major design overhauls!

    Probably not. They used to confiscate those at the end of the class and if you were caught using one that someone else made you were dropped from the course. I snuck back after we handed them in and were checked off the list, snagged mine and got back out with it under my jacket. For the amount of time and effort I put into it I wanted to keep it.
