THE BLACKBIRD: WHAT DID IT FEEL LIKE TO FLY FASTER THAN A MISSILE?
The SR-71 Blackbird cruised at over Mach 3, higher than 85,000 feet — and more than 4,000 missiles were fired at it during its operational career. Not one ever brought it down. This is the story of what it actually felt like to fly it: the pressure suits, the fuel designed to leak, the missile locks answered not with evasive maneuvers, but with more speed — and the landing that turned out to be more dangerous than Mach 3 itself. ✈️ If you enjoy aviation history, forgotten aircraft, engineering stories, and the evolution of flight, subscribe to WhyFly Lab for new videos every week. 👍 Like the video and share your thoughts in the comments: Do you think the Ford Tri-Motor deserved a longer legacy? #Aviation #blackbird #navy #army #WhyFlyLab #AircraftHistory #VintageAircraft #AviationHistory #PolarExploration #ClassicAircraft #FlyingHistory #Engineering Music: Cylinder Five de Chris Zabriskie é licenciada de acordo com a licença Atribuição 4.0 da Creative Commons. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
