Saw the "whale"...It looks like a bus with wings. Air intakes on top. rear
wings look like an F-22. Rather unusual aircraft.
THe USAF museum will be expanding, adding 50% MORE display space by building
a new hangar called "The Cold War". The new hangar will be the same size as
the "Jet Age" hangar now housing the XB-70 and such. The say they will have
a Russian Bear bomber on display, although no one knew where the aircraft
would be coming from. Also to be built is a round building (about the size
of the IMAX theatre) containing ICBM missile and satellite launch vehicles.
No date of completion (or even groundbreaking) was given.
