Crazy cool. I have always loved the blackbird, one of the few planes I like better than helicoptors! I would be afraid to run out of fuel and crash something that nice! Wonder what those powerplants are?
 
I got to touch one of those SR-71's one time, the pitot tube was sticking out of the hangar. It was over Hawaii with engine trouble and landed at Dobbins AFB in Atlanta. That's one long divert!

Cool video.....thanks
 
I used to be a security forces augmentee in Okinawa, and had to gaurd one of these SR-71's on 2 different occassions. We had 3 of them at Kadena AB... awesome does not describe them. When they took of or landed, the base went into lockdown mode for about 30 minutes.

LaRue,,In 'Nam I had security clearance for our black birds, MACV-SOG. Our 130's and 123's were black. Including Puff the 130 gun ship.



One day after a mission I was coming off of one our 130's @ thon-son-nuht air base. There was a SR-71 on the tarmac, close by. I started walking toward it. I got stoped buy secuity. I showed him my badge, he laughed and said, not this black bird.....LOL
