Has anyone been to NYC and seen the A-12 on Intrepid as of late? I'd
love to know your impression of what you've seen.

I just posted a picture I took last year on alt.binaries.pictures.military

It looked in reasonable shape to me

The photos that I took, at least the recent ones are from May 2003.
were taken on a bright, sunny, morning, so the light was exceptional.
I also used an Olypmus OM-2 with macro and zoom lenses along with 28mm
and 50mm lenses. I would like to know if you noticed if the refueling
hatch and the tail dump hatch were open when you saw her. I have a
book which I complied that shows the state of the aircraft from 1995
through 2003. I was in the position to be able to take these photos
and since I worked on the restoration, I also have detailed photos of
that. I also have detailed notes on #122 up until the time I left
Intrepid. I WISH I could be able to post all those photos so that you
could see all the good work that we had done and how it is now been
undone and left to rack and ruin. If you are interested maybe I can
copy the book and get it to you.
