If you flew to the outer edge of the Universe, would it be the same time it was at the Big Bang?

Time zero was the beginning edge of the universe.
The expanding edge is probably an extremely low dencity area of space that may be going out of existence.
When it does it could be called time zero.

The edge of the universe is an oxy-moron like dark matter. Universe is a word we use to describe everything as we know it. So, time zero is anything that we don't know. Because we don't measure it till we agree its there. Consider the black slab in 2001 A Space Odyssee, people refuse to acknowledge that it represents nothing. You see humans have a very difficult time accepting that we are in the midst of everything yet we don't matter as much as we think.
Conclusion: The edge of the universe isn't an edge at all, it's everywhere. It grows and shrinks proportionate to its own needs.

Technically no
there is no edge to the universe per se. All those cool picture from Hubble are just seeing light from a long time ago. (hey it had to travel along way;-)

Excellent question. It very well may be.
Of course, it could not even theoretically be possible to fly there, as it is both far away and moving farther at a speed that we could never achieve.
