Valkyrie- she is so gorgeous! 54 years ago February 4th 1969 was her last flight. She took off from Edwards Air Force Base,CA and flew to the National Airport Museum in Dayton Ohio for her retirement. Over the next few days I'll be posting a lot more about her. Out of, all the aircraft in history that I've studied. From the Wright flyer to the F-35, J20, Su 57 and of course the one that is the most badass ass of all thee F-22 Raptor! The Xb70 valkyrie has been my favorite I started actively researching aircraft at the age of six, 1974. I would dream daily of seeing her. As of yet I've never seen her in person. That all changes in about 2 months, I'll be seeing her for the first time in her new birth and I am very excited. I've been by the museum three times, but I was only on the East Coast for family emergencies! I grew up and have lived my life on the west coast, in Seattle! Being an aviation historian, has been a fun lifelong Pursuit, full of passion! Valkyrie is truly the most beautiful aircraft I've ever laid eyes on!
