Terry Awesome aircraft! Miss working on the aircraft and with the people who maintained and flew her. Beale 1975-1981, Det 1 (Okinawa) 1981-1985.

Jetinder Apart from Concorde the SR71 was the fastest long range plane ever made. It was brilliant :-), in the 1960s its a pity US government chose Boeing instead of Lockheed to build their version of Concorde.... If Lockheed had been chosen USA would have had thier version of Concorde.

Eric Does any one know when the black bird was made, not the first time it was used or flown but when it was actually made what year?????????

Thomas Was fortunate to work these awesome jets while stationed at Beale AFB. Sad to see them stuck on the ground and rusting away!

The Lockheed SR-71 was an advanced, long-range, Mach 3 strategic reconnaissance aircraft developed from the Lockheed A-12 and YF-12A aircraft by the Lockheed Skunk Works. The SR-71 was unofficially named the Blackbird, and called the Habu by its crews. ...
