area just outside of Edwards AFB in California. In the middle of the desert on a concrete slab open
to the elements, (read blazing sun), a pair of Blackbirds, just sitting there...
If I can find the photo's I'll post them as a PAW.

When I went to the new "Hanger", I was amazed by how big the Blackbird
was. It was nearly as big as the Concord, and I hadn't expected that. Of course, I should have realized that not being a fighter and having
such a long range mission would make a bigger plane, but the reality was
surprising.
BTW, Christian is absolutely right about the light being lousy. Bring a monopod.

The SR-71 makes appearances at the RIAT,
Oh man... you shouldn't have said that. I'd just about have to come over just to see that plane. I am truly fascinated by the SR71 and I'd
love to actually see one. Getting to see one flying would be even better.
