Glad they're not flying SR-71s any more, they're extremely noisy going through Mach. First time hearing it, thought someone had crashed into the house.
The shock waves were quite visible in a Cirrus deck. Ripples then BOOM.
Irv Culver had a few stories about the 71. He was also originator of the name Skunk Works.
Haven't seen a U-2 in a while.
