SR-71: A Plane I'd Love To See Fly

Doug — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 13:18:56 +0000

I have always considered myself a good Air Force Brat as my dad served in the Air Force for over 20 years. While I only was at three bases, Castle Air Force Base in California; Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany; and Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, I got to see a lot of great planes. I love the B-2 Stealth Bomber, A-10 Thunderbolt; T-38 that are stationed at Whiteman. I have enjoyed going to air shows to see everything from the old biplanes to the Mustangs to the F-4 Phantom to the F-16s. However, I was a watching a movie Turbulent Skies and got to thinking that I never have seen an SR-71 fly in person.
