I at first thought I’m not watching an hour long video but I’ll give it a go as it’s the Blackbird, well when it finished I thought I’d only been watching for 15 - 20 minutes. Such a well done video explanation of this amazing aircraft and a tribute to Kelly Johnson and his team at the Lockheed Skunk works.

Wow Wade incredible video! I don’t even build flak bait, planes aren’t my thing, but the SR-71 and XB-70 are too cool not to love. That video flew by. What amazing technology, can’t believe it’s 60 years old! Still nothing to beat it!

Happy to share!

AnimaGraffs has several outstanding videos. They are one of my favorite YouTube channels.

The one on a WW2 submarine & the steam locomotive are fantastic. However, the one for sailing ships, explained HMS Victory and it’s just as fabulous as the SR-71 video.

That is a great video. I have seen it before and it’s worth the time. A good family friend was a pilot of this sexy jet right before they retired her.

Not to take away from what Wade started but here is another great video for you guys. That is if some off you have not seen it already as these gatherings were very popular and sold out ever event we did. I said we because I use to be part of the Gallery One crew which was known as the home of Sled Driver.
