Okay, I've been approved for a visit to the USAF museum's research division on Monday the 4th of August, with the possibility of extensions through the rest of the week.
I of course will be bringing a laptop and a scanner.
What aircraft should I aim for?
I'm assuming you guys all want the following:
B-36B,C,D,E,F,G,H,J
B-47
B-52xxxx
XB-70
XF-108
But beyond that, I'm at a loss....try for the XF-107 and perhaps XF-103?
(PS -- in case you don't know what a SAC is, here is the F-14A's SAC from 1977; scanned in by me)
F-14A SAC, 1977 -- WARNING 12 MB or so
EDIT:
Wait!
XP-72!
P-51H!
What to scan in at the USAF Museum?

You are not to leave until everything is digitised.
Dynamic. When [Kuznetsov] decided he was going to make a difference, he did it...Like Ovechkin...then you find out - he's with Washington too? You're kidding. - Ron Wilson

Any X-planes you can find. X-15 of course, X-1 would be interesting as well. Maybe F-117?

On discovering that most soldiers during the American Civil War were dying of disease rather than gunshots, he turned his mind to, rather than providing better sanitary conditions and medical care for troops, creating a machine to make sure they got shot faster.
