> Sorry, Jon, they had it in the air around 58-59.
Well, we will have to agree to disagree on this one, as I have the USAF
museum book in front of me listing the first flight of a SR on Dec. 22,
1964.
The A-12 first flew in 62.
Now, if you are thinking of the U-2, yes, it flew in 1955.
I will ask my SR mechanic friend when he comes back from Beale AFB where he
was stationed while working on all three variants and the U-2.
