Just happened to hear this one roaring over. Absolutely stoked to see one flying.

Would we count this as a unicorn or Pegasus for rare flying frames?

I'm leaning towards Pegasus because this Tristar launches rockets by the same name (1 left as far as i know then it's really off to the desert)

Yes. 1 left, scheduled to launch 1st of June on one of the coolest flights ever (docking to a space telescope to boost it's orbit and save it from re-entering), then there are no Pegasus rockets left and nothing for it's carrier to do.

Correction: IIRC this is THE wild TriStar.
