"Although the book is only 192 pages e" much of them taken up with images, drawings and illustrations e" it is filled to the brim with information and revelation. The book is as enjoyable to read as it is to see since the illustrations and background textures of the pages make for a rich experience. Once read, the reader will have not only an acute awareness of flying an SR-71 but an overview of the organization as well as logistics which were required to keep the SR-71 flying." - Travel for Aircraft (Seattle Post Intelligencer Blog), "Although the book is only 192 pages '?¬'? much of them taken up with images, drawings and illustrations '?¬'? it is filled to the brim with information and revelation.

Richard H. Graham is absolutely the best presented and most accurately detailed book ever published about the Blackbird family of planes. Rich Graham includes recently declassified information about the CIA and Air Force Blackbird programs to make his book the most informative source on the subject. Being a veteran of the CIA's A-12 Oxcart program, I can vouch to the accuracy of what Colonel Graham published in this great book about a world of aviation so selective and compartmentalized that even participants in the various Blackbird programs will learn from this book. Colonel Graham has published the "go to" book for our nation's reconnaissance programs involving the Blackbird family of planes."  -  Thornton D. "TD" Barnes (Former Area 51 Special Projects. Project OXCART)

Synopsis
SR-71 covers every aspect of the SR-71 spy plane's development, manufacture, and active service from the insider's perspective of one its pilots. Lavishly illustrated with more than 200 photos., At the height of the Cold War in 1964, President Johnson announced a new aircraft dedicated to strategic reconnaissance. The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird spy plane flew more than three-and-a-half times the speed of sound, so fast that no other aircraft could catch it. Above 80,000 feet, its pilots had to wear full-pressure flight suits similar to what was used aboard the space shuttle. Developed by the renowned Lockheed Skunk Works, the SR-71 was an awesome aircraft in every respect, and it took the world by storm. The SR-71 was in service with the U.S. Air Force from 1964 to 1998, when it was withdrawn from use, superseded by satellite technology. Twelve of the thirty-two aircraft were destroyed in accidents, but none were ever lost to enemy action. Throughout its thirty-four-year career, the SR-71 was the world's fastest and highest-flying operational manned aircraft. It set world records for altitude and speed: an absolute altitude record of 85,069 feet on July 28, 1974, and an absolute speed record of 2,193.2 miles per hour on the same day. On September 1, 1974, it set a speed and time record over a recognized course between New York and London (3,508 miles) of 1,435.587 miles per hour and an elapsed time of 1 hour, 54 minutes, 56.4 seconds.

    A great transaction! I got an excellent price on a very nice book, as described and shown. Shipping was very fast and reasonably priced. However, the plastic bubble-wrap envelope was NOT optimal packaging. My book arrived with a long shallow dent on the bottom edge of the front cover. I was able to press and flatten it more or less back into shape. It's not very noticeable and OK for the price. But I would think twice about buying from a seller who doesn't box books for shipping.

  • Outstanding book

    I have ALL of Colonel Graham's books. They are easy to read yet give you just enough detail to completely understand the topic being covered at the time. It will not take you long to realize there is no one out there that knows the SR's more than Rich Graham.
