History:
I'm an avid Microsoft Flight Simulator fan, and have owned each version since FS95. I have also loved the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird since the film DARYL, when I discovered the SR-71 was an aircraft and not (as I had thought for many years) an alien spaceship.

When I discovered flightsim.com after buying FS2000, the first thing I looked for was an SR-71 model to download, and I found a fantastic one, created by PSS (Phoenix Simulation Software), complete with sound effects, panels and detailed textures. It is a free download from flightsim.com and is now available for both FS2000 and FS2002.

With the aircraft installed and a few test flights under my belt, I decided that the world just had to be seen from the cockpit of a Blackbird. I started planning an around the world flight.

This page is the result...

NOTE: I found this link whilst I was checking out some info on the Pacific Islands I visited - seeing as I live in Nottingham, though it might be interesting...
