Bathed in the strange midday darkness of a total solar eclipse, this Skylancer was once flown by Neil Armstrong himself. I'm sure he would have appreciated this unforgettable moment just as much as those of us who witnessed it did. Restored in 2018-2019 to markings worn when Neil flew her, ex USN BuNo 142350.
