That read beautifully, must have been such a good moment. Hope you didn't catch any flack for that though?
Um, that wasn't OP's story, it's an old copypasta from Reddit. https://old.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/9z7923/sr71_blackbird_copypasta/
Which was in turn derived from the book "Sled Driver: Flying the World's Fastest Jet" by Brian Shul.
You can hear Brian Schul tell it himself: https://youtu.be/8AyHH9G9et0?si=5aes_aeiIT3bIlsX
So cool, thanks for sharing
It might even be from before then. I could swear I saw this copypasta back on the GameFAQs message board in the early 2000's.
This is my favorite copypasta. Love that Blackbird.
oh shit, thanks. I had no idea
One of the best copypastas ever.
