Fitting really as last time i was at Palmdale there was still a couple of Blackbirds at plant 42 at the air park, although one might have been a A12 but is still a blackbird.

Also there was one outside one of the hangers in plant 42, dont know if that is still there?

Yup, those 2 are still here. Google earth shows 7, including the white one, 4 B2’s & a row of B1’s so thats well out of date 🙂
Had a B52 doing touch & goes here a couple of weeks back & it wasn’t the one out of Edwards.

I’m guessing the school will get a scale model SR on a stick, we already have 3 (scale) B2’s scattered aroud town, the F4 outside the Sheriffs Station, F18 at the baseball stadium, Douglas SkyRocket on a stick at the local college etc. Lockheed just painted the F104 by their gate.
