    Any man who has testosterone in his system appreciates that the SR71 is THE BIGGEST PENIS ever built. And we love it for it. Almost as fast as an English Electric Lightning, but with far bigger range!

        Who invented the jet engine? Do you really think the SR71 was as fast? You should read about the Lightning. Top speed was mach [SECRET]. A pair of Lightnings forced a Blackbird to land back in 1978.

          I am fairly certain that was a U2 that was intercepted, NOT an SR-71 ... but you know, anytime you want to cough up some evidence ... you know ... minus that grainy video of what could be a plane, maybe a UFO or a paper plate ... you just post it here Mister ... Until then ... I'm not buyin your story. ;P

                                          I'm fairly certain I have met both those guys. Many years back, when I was a young lad in the Navy, my in-laws lived outside Beale, in the Lake Wildwood area. At that time, it was a smaller community, but lots of Air Force people, especially pilots lived up there because it was so very nice, and had some very expensive homes as well. My father-in-law built custom homes and knew several pilots from doing thier homes for them. On weekends, my wife and I would head up that way (from NAS Moffetf Field) and these guys would come over for a beer and we'd talk military stuff back and forth. Memories.
