Ira, I'm looking forward to the new pictures. I don't think that bombers got 
bad ass elegant again until the B1. Actually got to
tour one at an airshow here.

Cheers
Hoppy

Hi Hoppy,
 
Many thanks again for looking.
 
To my eyes, the B-58 Hustler was one drop-dead gorgeous airplane.  And  one 
of the most appropriately named.  After all, what is a hustler, if not  Born 
Beautiful, Lived Fast, and Died Young!
 
I've got some scanning to do from the archives this weekend.
 
Best Regards,
 
Ira
