It appears the Museum of Aviation near Robins AFB in Georgia has acquired F-117 #794. The C-5 from TTR flew it directly to Robins. Although this method of transportation was the standard from the Burbank factory in the 80's and 90's, this is the first one I'm aware of that has been delivered from TTR to its post-retirement home. If I remember correctly all of the others have been trucked back to Palmdale for demilitarization prior to delivery. The fact that this one was delivered from TTR in a demil'd state indicates that the crews at TTR now have this capability on-site.
