Citat:A-12 60-6926 was the third A-12 built, second to fly and the first to crash. It was powered by Pratt & Whitney J-75 engines so it never reached it's designed speed of Mach 3. It was lost on 24 May 1963.
On 24 May 1963, CIA pilot Ken Collins was flying an inertial navigation system test mission. After entering clouds, frozen water fouled the pitot-static boom and prevented correct information from reaching the standby flight instruments and the Triple Display Indicator. The aircraft subsequently entered a stall and control was lost completely followed by the onset of an inverted flat spin. The pilot ejected safely. The wreckage was recovered in two days and persons at the scene were indentified and requested to sign secrecy agreements. A cover story for the press described the accident as occurring to an F-105, and is still listed in this way on official records. [Link mogu videti samo ulogovani korisnici]
