JIM'S BIO: As an 18-year-old Airman Second Class in the Air Force (name of therank was changed for PC reasons). I was sent TDY (Temporary Duty) to Edwards AFB to install and maintain their ground base telemetry system for three Category One testing programs. The first two were public knowledge: the YC-141 Lockheed Starlifter and the North American Aviation XB-70 Valkyrie. The third was a classified program. That program was Kelly Johnson’s ultimate interceptor, the Mach 3+ YF-12A Blackbird. My passion was now cast in stone. On March 10, 1964, at approximately 1515 hrs (3:15 PM), I saw what was to change my life forever. On the XB-70 test pad was what I first thought was the North American Aviation X-15 rocket plane, but the people were way too small. Much to my amazement, I had my first glimpse of Kelly’s incredible Mach 3+ Blackbird, the YF-12A, in full afterburners. I’ve never been the same! In the spring of 1968, via the US Postal Service, I formally asked Lockheed, the United States Air Force, the Department of Defense and the Central Intelligence Agency for unclassified photos of the of the SR- 71 on the ground or in the air. I was willing to pay the published rate for color 8x10s. I was turned down and never received any of the photos I had requested. Had the Air Force, Lockheed, DoD and the CIA honored my photo requests in 1968, I would have been happy to just move along. But, as with all things government, their unofficial “official” policy was to not cooperate; so, I started digging, the more I dug, the more I discovered. The more I discovered the deeper I dug. I would not be where I am today, in the field of spooky programs, if our government had given me what I wanted in 1968. I would have remained happy, and my name would never have been associated with Area 51, the Blackbirds, the F-117 or the Skunk Works. And the late Ben Rich, former President of the Skunk Works, and I would never have been friends.
