First Sentence

Imagine the thrill Clarence L. "Kelly" Johnson (Fig. 1.1), founder and Chief Engineer of the Lockheed "Skunk Works," felt the first time the YF-12 (forerunner of the SR-71) flew faster than 2000 mph, or the satisfaction Harry Hillaker, Chief Designer of the F-16, felt when his creation became the most numerous jet fighter in the U.S. Air Force and in nine other air forces around the world.
