Showoffs

Dana Mathewson

A great case of one-upmanship.

If you're going to show off, make sure you really are top dog.
In this great little clip, an SR-71 pilot tells a story about flying around the Western United States to build up crew hours when small plane pilots started calling into air traffic control to ask their ground speed. Shortly thereafter, a Navy F-18 pilot dials in to put them in their place, asking the controller to broadcast his speed over the air, a cool 620 knots across the ground.
What the Navy pilot didn't realize was that a Blackbird was soaring through the area, at speeds that were...just a little faster.
