NASA appears to be pulling its SR-71 Blackbird, the fastest production plane ever made, out of retirement as the Trump administration teases its new line of hypersonic surveillance jets — but doubt…
Seeing Blackbird fly again after all these years would be incredible. I’d love to know what NASA has planned for it.
I agree with the skepticism, however this one is being reported by real aviation news sites, Aviation Weekly specifically.
The confirmed news is an SR71 that used to be parked outdoors has been moved.
Investigative journalism and some theorizing goes further, I found The Aviationist article saying “according to Trimble’s reporting, NASA also contacted former members of the SR-71 program to determine whether they would be interested to participate in a potential return-to-flight effort.”
Cursed source
It’s either clickbait or bullshit.

Hey, at least it’s not paywalled.
Why would propaganda be paywalled?
Damn, that is one hell of a question.
