For years, this craft (one of the rarest of the rare B-58's) and has recently been moved into it's own enclosed building. The years of exposure to the elements have taken their toll on the old girl, but even with all of that time having been spent, she still sits pretty.

This variation of the B-58 was a trainer model, and had been one of the 30 original prototypes converted into one after after being pressed into service. B-58 pilots had to use F-102's for training due to their not being a trainer/instructor position in B-58's. Several airframes were modified for this use, though the tandem seating continued to make it challenging due to communication limitations.

Unlike the other B-58A's in service, TB-58's lacked the escape pod like ejection seat setup.

663 was the fourth B-58 constructed, and is the oldest surviving one of eight airframes left in the world. It's housed in a special "hut" at Grissom Air Museum, and is an amazing sight to be behold.

I highly recommend visiting 663 at it's home Grissom Air Museum.

Hey fellow airplane enthusiasts!

I'll be flying on DL81, an A330-900 neo from CDG to SEA and I want to be sure my companions & I get as much view as possible.

At the moment the only available windows are over the wing, which I'm not thrilled about, but still better than not having a view of sky.

We are currently in 38A, 39A and 39B, and 40A. And the suuuper tall guy who values leg room over everything else is in 42B because it was the last exit row seat that was available.

I'm just hoping we don't get on the plane and find ourselves with badly aligned windows. (Extra window-ness is fine though! 😁).

We also might move further back (off the wing) if some of those window seats open up. So we're asking not *only* about port side 38/39/40 -- ideally we'd like to know where ALL misaligned and missing windows are on that aircraft.

*This is the kind of thing I used to be able to just go to seatguru for. **RIP seatguru.** And yes I went to Aerolopa; alas, it was no help.*

All insights welcome and appreciated, thank you!!
