USAF SR-71 Blackbird Signed By Chief Test Pilot Robert Gillilan Framed Print Coa
USAF Lockheed SR-71A Blackbird Signed By Chief Test Pilot Robert “Bob” Gillilan. Framed Print With COA Item #. Brand New In Box. The SR-71 was first conceptualized early in 1956, by Kelly Johnson’s “Skunk Works” crew at Lockheed. The original design was designated the A-12, a high speed fighter interceptor, and won a highly secret design competition on August 29, 1959 and was finally approved by the CIA under a code-named project Oxcart on January 30, 1960. On 22 December 1964, Lockheed Test Pilot Bob Gilliland flew the first flight of SR-71 #950 at Palmdale, Calf, flying for 1 hour and over 1000 mph. As the SR-71 program continued to grow, Gilliland continued to be the first pilot to fly each Blackbird as it became operational, logging more experimental supersonic flight test-time above Mach 2 and Mach 3 than any other pilot. The wood frame measures 16.50″ x 13.50″ x 1.50. Certificate of Authenticity included.
