The quick bit in the comments is a pretty funny story too...


I always liked the one where the SR-71 pilot asks permission to fly at 80,000 feet. The local tower responds that if he can get there it is all his. The sled pilot says "Roger, descending to 80,000".

Didnt even click on the link but that sounds like a quote from former sled driver Brian Shul. Good stories from those guys - many of the things they did are STILL classified.

A great read... but that must have been one of the first stories ever posted on the Internet.

I'm pretty sure I first read it on USENET.
