Some of you may recognize the voice of the guy taking a ride in the U-2. Amazing ride at 70,000 feet in Space.

I would love to take a ride also, but if the choice was given of U-2 at 70k ft or the SR-71 goign max speed, I'll take the SR-71.

Amazing opportunity and I am jealous of him.

That is a dream of mine too... unfortunately it last flew in 1999, they are all retired now :(

I remember seeing one at the Toronto Air Show years ago... totally awesome.

Thats pretty incredible!

I'm glad to see that it was James May who went up on that flight. I think he is the type of person who could truly appreciate something like that.

I would whole-heartedly agree. U-2 or SR-71, it would be amazing to see that view of the world!
