For anyone who has ever wondered what it's like to fly the SR71 on a secret Mach 3 reconnaissance mission, this book has the answer. Completely redesigned and updated with photos from author Colonel Richard H. Graham's personal archive, as well as a new introduction, Flying the SR71 Blackbird details what an SR71 mission entailed, from planning to donning a pressure suit to returning to base.The Lockheed SR71, unofficially known as the Blackbird, was an advanced, longrange, Mach 3 strategic reconnaissance aircraft developed by Lockheed Skunk Works. The aircraft flew so fast and high that not one was ever shot down, even by a missile. SR71 pilot and instructor Colonel Richard Graham offers a rare cockpit perspective on how regular Air Force pilots and navigators transformed themselves into SR71 Blackbird crews, turning their unique aviation talents to account in an unprecedented way.Arguably the world's foremost expert on piloting the Blackbird, Graham takes readers along on an operational mission that only a few Air Force pilots have ever experienced.
