Hey Stat,  I'll fly it if you buy it.  It would cost about the same as a new sled, but a sled is much more fun.

Thanks

Ron, you probably just went over to the Wright's to play with their kids at the time, and they were probably older kids as well. wave  Buzz, on the other hand, was probably at the helm of some of their first test planes before Kitty Hawk and was too old to pilot the maiden flight, which is why he's not famous today. arrow  bust gut laughing bust gut laughing bust gut laughing

Bill don't tell anyone but I worked on the YF12A, later called the A11 and ended up calling it a SR71 Black Bird, The first ones were suppose to be called FY12A ( fighter experimental )but when Pres. Johnson released photos of the plane to public he called it YF12A, now the Pres. can't be wrong so they changed the name of the aircraft. Fighter my ass it takes 20 miles to make a turn. Another little tidbit when the plane was on the ground, they would leak fuel so bad you had to wear a rain coat to walk under the wings. they say the engines expand 3 to 4 inches when in flight. I didn't make this up we have a park in town called The Black Bird Park they have a YF12A and a SR71 on display oh and in a back corner there is a OLD ragged B52

Buzz your absolutely correct about the fuel leaks. However that was by design. The plane would actually grow in flight. Once fueled on the ground it would get refueled inflight and continue. At altitude it didn't leak a drop.
The Airforce still today will not release the top altitude  or airspeed that the SR71 was capable of.
It's amazing what the engineers could do in those times without computers and only using a slide ruler.

In the mid 60's the Russian' s  held the fix wing aircraft speed record, I think it was around 1800 miles per hour.  At Edwards AFB they set up some clocks to time a YF12A.  So along comes the plane at about 1000 feet elev. ( right over the runway ) He beat the Russian's record by a small amount. After the plane cleared the timing lights the Pilot hit afterburner, pulled back the stick and hauled ass !! I think that was to show the Press that he had some speed left . I can tell you this is a true story, As a young GI stationed at Edwards I watched this whole thing happen. Last time I was out at NASA Edwards they still had 2 SR's they fly, and one B52

Buzz is absolutely correct.  My brother is a colonel in the air force and he has shown me some crazy stuff.  I should dig up vid we took in a fuel tanker.   We got down on our bellies as the tanker dropped the hose to fuel and I recored it.  It's on vhs now and I should convert it to digital.  It was really amazing.   He was stationed at Holloman base in New Mexico for many years. -  so I'm familiar with the area.

i had a ex-GF that worked on them out of March AFB, I got up close and personal with the rain of jet fuel once or twice. They'd put just enough fuel in 'em to get airborne, then fill 'er up at altitude. The less the fuel load on the ground, the less they leaked.

Buzz, even the newest B52 is OLD.  bust gut laughing bust gut laughing bust gut laughing bust gut laughing Heck, I worked on the G models (H are the newest), and mine was 24 years old when I got to it! Darn thing was born before I was... Duh! Duh!

I'm pretty sure the first B52 flew in 1952, First landing was at Edwards and it blew out some tires when it landed. the base didn't have anything big enough to pick it up, so as the story was told to me it sat on the runway for a week or so until they could get a Crane   to pick it up. Edwards to this day only has one runway. But one big a__ dry lake bed they can use.
