Trust me, if anyone ever broke that record the SR would have easily
re-established a higher record . . .

The original record "upper limit" was set "low" to mask the true
capabilities of the aircraft.

With all the radar and stuff like that there why are the capabilities of the
SR-71 still classified. I'm sure the bad guys already know. I'd really like to
know how high and how fast it realy was.
