I"ve seen the SR-71 at a couple of museums.....very impressive. I remember the narrator talking about how it "stretches" in flight due to heat,....leaks on the ground. (like in the story below).

Joked about the drop zone would be from Alabama to Mississippi! But, hey, we always enjoyed that Southern Hospitality- wherever we landed!
