Re: Aircraft pics
Ed,
It is an awesome plane to be sure. Still holds the speed record!  The SR-71 was actually conceived by Kelly Johnson in the late 1950's. It is truly amazing that an aircraft of that vintage still has not been topped. I can only imagine what it would have been like to work with Kelly Johnson and the Shunkworks guys back then....  Actually, I was told once that the SR-71 actually flew much faster than advertised. Love to know what the max. speed was on that bad-boy!

Re: Aircraft pics
Wouldn't want to explain this Gear-up landing of a B-1. Should not happen in a multi-crew aircraft.
