SR-71 Blackbird Takeoff & Landing

This is a video taken from a chase plane that shows the takeoff roll, and then lowering the landing gear for landing. Unfortunately it cuts off before showing the 30 foot Orange Drag Chute deploying.

Imagine ! This bird was designed in the late 1950s built in 1962 and it still appears to us to be state of the art. Imagine what they have secreted nowadays.
