Apologies, got distracted after typing Oxcart, Tagboard, Kedlock and Earning into the search box!

Kedlock? I remember seeing one of those planes at the USAF Museum years ago. It was in the X-plane hangar, we missed one of the scheduled bus tours and were able to talk our way into the hangar unescorted with a relative's military ID. After a while, a docent appeared and he said that he had flown the YF-12A and the SR-71. I remember the name as something like Meacham but haven't been able to find it on any of the pertinent lists.

Thanks for the MiG manual links.

Actually, a lot of the prose in the English manuals looks better to me than in the early Airbus A300-600/A310 company manuals that were supposedly written in French and translated into English by a German.
