Listing of All Personnel Who Flew the Blackbirds



Bob Gilliland, First Pilot to fly an SR-71

The following data lists all personnel who qualified to fly the
Blackbirds. The listing is from the first person to fly the aircraft to
the last person qualified. The listing includes all RSO's and VIP's
that flew in the aircraft. This original data was derived from Buddy
Brown's Book and has been expanded upon by David Allison, webmaster at Habu.Org. He has diligently researched and verified those entries
contained below. There is data missing but to our knowledge that data
is currently not available from any source. As time goes on and data
becomes available, this web page will be updated. You can search this
page for a name by going to: Edit/Find in Page and entering the name of
the crewmember. This page should verify any rumors as to "The
Politician who said he flew a Blackbird".

The Database is searchable in its entirety.

Special thanks to David Allison for making this possible

Buddy Brown in 2010 has taken his Historical documentation of Crewmember Qualifications and revised it. Buddy used his original document and
with David Allison's searchable database information combined the two to
make two new documents. The three formats are:

The following individuals have flown in a blackbird, but not at Mach 3
(this is not a complete list):
* Barnett Larry 11-Oct-73
* Kelly John 1963
* Staff Col BGen Ledford Jack C. 1-Mar-63
* Perkins Cy 1963
* Staff LtCol Col Schrecengost Ray 1965
* Staff Maj Col Spruill Dameron 8-May-69
* VIP Col Col Uppstrom Richard L. 7-Nov-79
* Young David P. 1963
* Wilson Dick 19-Dec-63


Notes:
1 - Always listed at 26 April 1962, but one source who was there at the
time and witnessed the "flight" remembers the date as April 25, as it
was his brother's birthday. Kelly Johnson himself lists April 25 in his History of OXCART paper.

2 - Listed in the original Buddy Brown book as #22, with a date of 20
February 1965, Beswick's first flight in the A-12 Trainer aircraft was
12 January 1963 with Bill Park. All flights listed prior to August 1963
would not have been at Mach 3, but rather just the first ride in a
blackbird. Beswick's Mach 3 card signed by Kelly Johnson is #014, and
was issued on 20 February 1965, when he rode in the back seat of Article
134 with Art Peterson in the front seat.

3 - Originally listed as 23 February 1967, the pilot involved has
corrected this to 17 November 1966.

4 - Date of 17 Aug 1966 does not make sense, as he was the IP for Dave Dempster's first Mach 3+ flight on 19 Apr 1966.

5 - Listed as having his Mach 3+ flight on 2 August 1965. However, he
was involved in a T-38 crash on July 8 and died four days later on July
12, 1965.

6 - Listed as flight #15, the certificate held by Ray Scalise shows #7.

7 - Previously listed as William Keller, #314. Corrected to show
Richard Glen "Dick" Keller.
