The Lockheed production video on the Sr-71 YF-12 Blackbrd. The original video was produced in 1985 by Lockheed Aircraft Company.
I have heard the story about how area 51 came about, Kelly Johnson and the Gov needing a test area that was well away from anything else, and that the area was part of the range used for nuclear testing (not area 51 but the range itself). It was just a joke because at the time of the film of Mr. Johnson I'm sure that area was still considered top secret and wasn't acknowledged by the gov. Sorry for the confusion.

It's just a grid marking from an old military survey. everybody knows about area 51. The Soviets have been overflying area 51 with satellites for some 40 years about every 96 minutes. I think the real secrets are buried under a corn field in Iowa or on some remote pacific island or somewhere like that. Area 51 is not really that big a deal. I think the government is laughing about it as a tool of mis-information and mis-direction myself.

I thought that place doesn't exist. ha ha...good to know that a machine that is almost from another world, was tested at a area that doesn't exist.
