Just watched this on Sky. Very interesting, apparently all the Titanium to build it came from Russia!

Not sure if it's repeated, but as its on Sky I'd be surprised if its not! Worth a look if it is.

I'm going there in September.
Well as close as you can legally get, maybe a yard over the line.

They didn't really seem to point out that "Oxcart" wasn't an SR-71 but the forerunner, granted they shared stealth technology but the SR-71 was quite different.

You want to get shot?

Oxcart and Blackbird look much the same to me.
