It's a fascinating read from the perspective of someone who actually was involved in all those planes.

Check The History Channel's listing often because yesterday they had a bunch of hour long programs on a variety of planes. One was on the Stratofortress B-52 followed by the SR-71 Blackbird. Very well cone shows.
