Lockheed SR-71A Throughout its nearly 24-year career, the SR-71 remained the world's fastest and highest-flying operational aircraft. From 80,000 feet, it could survey 100,000 square miles of Earth's surface per hour. On July 28, 1976, an SR-71 set two world records for its class -- an absolute speed record of 2,193.167 mph and an absolute altitude record of 85,068.997 feet. #avgeek #history #sr71blackbird | National Museum of the U.S. Air Force

The SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft flew missions around the globe at speeds above Mach 3 and altitudes of 85,000 feet or more. Although its many contributions to national security will never be fully revealed to the public, the Skunk Works marvel holds many world aviation records for its speed and altitude. In this interview with former SR-71 pilot Col. Buzz Carpenter, you'll hear a first-hand account of the aircraft's power and majesty. The Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird" is a long-range, high-altitu

The SR-71 first flew in late December of 1964 and hasn't been in service for almost 25 years. It's still the fastest plane that's ever seen action. http://popme.ch/6009CluT | Popular Mechanics

Don't be scared — the SR-71 is not a UFO, but its appearance is undeniably otherworldly. This aircraft was used for strategic reconnaissance missions, where it flew at incredible speeds (Mach 3.2) and altitudes (85,000 feet / 25,900 meters), outpacing, or entirely avoiding potential threats. #instagramaviation #flying #aircraft #airplane #aviation4u #flight | EAA - The Spirit of Aviation

The SR-71 was a beast. The original video was taken by our friend Jim Mumaw. He was a giant in the aviation photography scene who passed away earlier this year. We miss his frequent posts and light night chats about airplanes and photography. | Avgeekery.com
