After spending a total of 31 days in that beautiful girl, what is the single best memory of flying at Mach 3? The tremendous views at 80,000ft. The curvature of the Earth's horizon was absolutely stunning.

Well, let's not let the flat earthers hear about this one. Hahah

I think the easy analogy is a car. You could have the same car as someone else, but maybe yours runs a little rougher or bounces more on bumpy roads, or runs a bit hot. Same thing is true because the parts and assembly somewhat (probably because of the time between production runs) and the maintenance history are unique to each plane. They acquire unique characteristics that may not be serious enough to bother fixing, but make them different nonetheless.
