This was my final project for DFT-170 in which I created a model of the SR-71 BlackBird. Its a little wonky in places and parts like the pins and turbines should be scaled down a notch to fit better. This was my first big project in SolidWorks.

There are two iterations - one keeps close to Duckobert's peg design, but the pegs are hollow and split, just like the well known slotted spring pins used in various technical applications. Fits like a glove (finger, actually - the plane parts are the gloves ...?) into the mid/tail section holes. The second...

Declassified(Unclassified) Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird Flight Manual for SR-71A and SR-71B variants. The SR-71(retired) was a United States Air Force high performance, high altitude Mach 3+ strategic reconnaissance aircraft. The SR-71 was in service with the US Air Force from 1966 to 1990 and the last flight of an SR-71 was by NASA in 1999. It was, and still is, the fastest jet aircraft ever deployed.

How did you become a pilot for the SR-71 Blackbird? Buz Carpenter knows. He started flying the SR-71 in 1975 after a week-long interview process that included an astronaut physical. Buz shares what it was like becoming a Blackbird pilot, how pilots used their 580-degree windows to heat up their lunches, and how the aircraft got the nickname Habu.

Launching of cryogenic propellants into earth orbit and beyond is very expensive. Each additional pound of payload delivered to low earth orbit requires approximately 35 pounds of additional weight at liftoff. There is therefore a critical need to minimize boiloff in spacecraft long term missions/systems. Various methods have been used to date, including superinsulation and thermodynamic vents to reduce boiloff. A system was designed and tested as described herein that will totally eliminate...

A straightforward procedure has been developed to quickly determine an inviscid design of a hypersonic wind tunnel nozzle when the test crash is both calorically and thermally imperfect. This real gas procedure divides the nozzle into four distinct parts: subsonic, throat to conical, conical, and turning flow regions. The design process is greatly simplified by treating the imperfect gas effects only in the source flow region. This simplification can be justified for a large class of hypersonic...

Now retired, they remain the only production aircraft capable of sustained Mach 3 cruise and operational altitudes above 80,000 feet.
