I may have posted this before but it's such a great, fun story that it is worth rereading.
Flying the Blackbird
Flying the Blackbird
SR-71s run on JP-7 fuel, that fills the six large tanks in the fuselage. The component parts of the Blackbird fit very loosely together to allow for expansion at high temperatures. At rest on the ground, fuel leaks out constantly, since the tanks in the fuselage and wings only seal at operating temperatures.
Cost Cost Cost(quoted from post at 14:46:35 10/05/18) I think it would be GREAT if they kept at least one operational for demonstrations -- such as at air shows. Wouldn't it be something to see one do a fly over leaving a contrail at top (or nearly top) speed!
