Description
They fit somewhere between aviators and astronauts, these men who flew the SR-71 Blackbird and its Lockheed siblings, the A-12 and the YF-12. They flew almost to the border of space, so high they could see the curvature of the Earth. Above 80,000 feet, nearly sixteen miles high, the sky overhead was deep blue, almost black, and stars were visible at noon.
They flew so fast they could literally pass a speeding bullet. Cruising speed exceeded 2,100 miles per hour, three times the speed of sound. They were armed only with cameras and radar–and, of course, that blinding speed. No enemy aircraft ever caught a Blackbird, let alone shot one down.
