[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] great book if you are into jets

Jet lovers will like this book

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great book. very interesting going into the inner workings of the Skunk Works. Anybody that likes airplanes in any way will love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very interesting story about American engineering and innovation

Great book

This book is very well written, and is a must have for any fan of military non-fiction. It is a story of American "can do" attitude and a company that helped USA win the cold war.

Awesome book

The title says it all. IF you're too young to know about Lockheed Martin and the Skunk Works, then, in a nutshell, the SR-71 Blackbird and U-2 spyplanes came from these labs.

If you have any interest in ultra-sonic flight, cutting edge research, "Area 51", or just asskicking military tricks and techniques, this book is an excellent read. It was very well written, and I'm surprised some of the information isn't still classified. I enjoy high technology, and this book had me captured from beginning to end.

Excellent book on the American spy plane projects

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] great book explaining top secret research
