Either the CIA or the KGB got him in the end then.

... and now it's all done by satelite, or by drones "flown" out of Vegas (ish)?

We still fly U2s.  A good portion of my basic training flight (from back in 1998) went on to be U2 crew chiefs.

Creech AFB (about an hour North of Las Vegas) is one of the worst places I've ever been.  The town consists of two trailer parks, a high school, a gas station, a casino, and oddly enough a pagan temple.  There was a sign for a bar somewhere in town, but we could never find the bar.

All that spying and they "still haven't found what I'm looking for..." (add groan here)

Didn't they give up after the SR71 (for some odd reason the USofA allowed the fastest of them to reside in a UK museum - Duxford) ...


this one... I have more detail shots for the "geeks"...

... and now it's all done by satelite, or by drones "flown" out of Vegas (ish)?

Powers (from my wife's home state) died back in '77, reputedly "sacrificing" himself in a helicopter crash, which could have hit some kids... he was just short of 48... RIP...


Well, that's what they would you have believe ;D  Do you really think that there was nothing in the inventory to replace it?  Google "Aurora" and see what kind of whacky stuff comes up ;D
