Name that plane

Matt Bullington, Manufacturing Engineer, NORDAM, Tulsa, Oklahoma

How long have you been in the aerospace business? About 5 years.

How did you become interested in aircraft? My interest was likely spawned by my grandfather’s fond recollections of the P-51s and Spitfires during WWII.

What is your favorite aircraft and why? Definitely the Lockheed SR-71 and all its variants. It still sets the bar for how far the envelope can be pushed with the proper engineering.

Runners-up:

Luis R. Chavez, Owner, Aviation Parts, El Paso, Texas

Bill Long, Vice President, Loyd’s Aircraft Maintenance Inc., Bakersfield, California
