I posted this offer in the "General, not associated with handicapping' section of the forum but few of the people in this section of the forum go there (me included) so PaceAdvantage said I could post it here.
Many of you may have deduced from my avatar that I had something to do with the 'BLACKBIRD' aircraft and you would be right. There were 3 models of the BLACKBIRD, The first was called the A12 and was the CIA's spyplane, the second one built was called the YF12A and was to be used as an interceptor firing air to air missiles, and the third one was the infamous SR71 spyplane. I flew flight test in the experimental YF12A, of which only 3 were built.
When all BLACKBIRD's were decommissioned and the SECRECY vail was lifted I was able to tell my wife about some of my 'experiences' during flight testing. She said I should write a book, so I did. It is an E-BOOK. The book is not for sale and never will be but I would like to share it with any forum member who would like a copy.
Just e-mail me at punteray@yahoo.com and I will send you a copy.
