Historic footage of the X-15’s fastest flight on this day, October 3, 1967. This X-15 was modified for even higher speeds including large external fuel tanks, lengthened fuselage, and white sealant as a heat shield. Even still, the X-15 nearly melted but not before Col. Pete Knight flew 4,520 MPH (Mach 6.7). To this day, no one has ever flown faster in an airplane. The X-15 program’s other mothership, NB-52A rests newly restored at Pima with a replica X-15 attached as shown by footage from @bone
