Greetings to all the Freeeprs out there it's time for the Friday Flyby. By request a quick look at the Lockheed SR-71. We are gonna get right to the pics tonight so on with the pics.

First up the head on shot.

An SR-71 inflite with an airport in the bckground. Anybody know where by chance?

There's power and then there's raw power, an SR-71 in burner at night. Who has the hot dogs?

A classic picture of the Sr-71 in flight>

Another classic blackbird shot.

And off into the sunset we go as we conclude tonight's Flyby

Y'all have a great Easter weekend and stay safe out there. Replies may be light this evening as alfa6 Sr is in town for the weekend.

Regards

alfa6 ;>}

I got to see an SR 71 up close at the Pima Air museum in Tuscon Az. I really recommend to go there if you ever have the time.You can get up close and personal with the aircraft of history!

Aloha Alfa6!

Well.......that has Kelly Johnson and the Skunk Works written all over it. But where's the UFOs?

Tell ya a tale about tracking the Black Bird over SE Asia sometime.....but it was spotty at best.

Happy Easter!
