Some nasty weather in the vicinity of WSSS. I think the huge front overhang unnerved the tug driver - at least the nose is pointing roughly in the right direction!

The weather is now irrelevant :) although I'm not at FL750 yet.

Not a bad approach - the autopilot can let the XB-70 get a bit mushy on the glideslope at (relatively!) slow speeds.

Canterbury Aero Club guys were impressed too!

Not sure if the King Air was too happy having to hang back a bit from all that jet exhaust!

Rest, sweet maiden of Odin - you shall ride again soon!
