I'm assuming that the planes you heard over your house were from the Los Alamitos Naval Air Station (since its right next to Garden Grove).

Last I checked, Los Al did not service B52's. You probably heard large transport planes.

The SR-71 is the Holy Grail of all planes. Like the McLaren F1 is to super cars.
The SR-71 flew from NY to London in 1hr 54min stopping to refuel only once. And from London to LA in a little over 3 hrs.
