SR-71
Jim Macklin wrote: If you do some simple algebra, the SR-71 is much faster than the published data. As the story below shows, only about 60% of the flight time is spent at supersonic speed. Yet the speed for the flights are in the 2,000 mph range even counting the subsonic time into the average. I would expect that the maximum speed was 4,000-6,000 mph. snip *really* long & cool Blackbird story Jim, you GOTTA start editing out yer replies. My monitor isn't big enough... : )
