Gnarly Gnu Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 SR-71 in-flight breakup by Bill Weaver. "we turned eastbound, accelerated to a Mach 3.2-cruise speed and climbed to 78,000 ft., our initial cruise-climb altitude..." Posted for general interest, also so those that enjoy psycho-analysing what the pilot did wrong. 2 2
Gnarly Gnu Posted April 30, 2015 Author Posted April 30, 2015 Another interesting SR-71 article on PopMech. 2
Gnarly Gnu Posted January 11, 2016 Author Posted January 11, 2016 SR-71 speed check, a good read... and what a magnificent machine. "Ripping across the barren deserts 80,000 feet below us, I could already see the coast of California from the Arizona border." 1
