Small? I saw an SR-71 at National Air and Space Museum near Dulles and I was amazed by how big is for a two-seater.

That museum might be my absolute favorite in the world. Absolutely stunning collection of aviation + space history on display

I loved Dayton.
We finished the first big hangar and my said how cool it was and that we’d seen it and ut was time to go.
Then I told her about the other 2 (3?) hangars.
We got our 10k steps in before lunch, but it was amazing, and I’d go back any day.
Putting the kids in the flight sim was cool. I told them it wasn’t that bad then my daughter promptly flew it fully upside down and we heard the screams from inside. Mostly fun screams. They begged to ride it again. We did it a bunch. My daughter got competitive so we had to fly together to get the days high score.

I've yet to go to the Udvar-Hazy museum, but it is on my bucket list. What I've seen of it online is absolutely amazing.

SR-71 and small? Are you sure?
I was really surprised by how small both are.
