ALLEN W. JOHNSON - DRSS

Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

A. E. Housman

What's even more amazing is that this aircraft was built with late 50's and early 60's technology. What's out there now running around that the Air Force has under wraps? Aurora maybe?

After going back and looking at the article I posted again, I recall an article from the 1980's entitled "Reconnoitering at Mach 3" - I think it was written by a Brit and published in a Brit aviation magazine. If anyone has a copy or knows where to find one I sure would like to read it again.
