Are those pencils poking up out of the top of the yoke?
I'll avoid a 4-page thesis on this. Bottom line, the U-2 is scheduled to be done Oct 2012. HOWEVER,... as the 2010 budget is built and finished, expect to see it slipped another year. And a year from now, I wouldn't be surprised to see this process repeat.How much longer would you expect the U2 to be up in the air?

Personally, I'd guess 2015.
NASA might fly it longer, but if the USAF closes Palmdale (where our heavy maintenance is done), that could also sink any plans NASA has to fly their 2 planes.
Here's the one I was looking for. Found it in my backup hard drive. You'll notice there are only 2 MFD's in the jet. We now have three: the old RWR scope on the right has been replaced. Note the Garmin on the left canopy rail, on the very left edge of the picture.

EVERYBODY ELSE, IGNORE THIS!!!Is there a super duper secret aircraft flying that we dont know about that will replace it? (dont worry I wont tell anyone)
"Meat" Broce, who I referred to in a couple of other threads, did the video years ago. You should see his current stuff done with his HD camera!!I was wondering who did that Tomcat Rockshow video... one of the better ones out there IMO.

Whitesoxnation, yes, there is something else. I'm going to train with them when I retire. It's a purely civilian gig, but you have to have "spacecraft, multi-plasma-thrust engines" on your FAA certificate.
Sssshhhh!!!!Are you a CFI can you teach me?
