What type of aircraft did you supervise during your career? You've mentioned an OH-58 Helicopter. The SR-71 is absurd because it's a ridiculously rare and expensive aircraft for recon and high altitude flight made in the 1970's.

See any fighter jets, gunships? Anything on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles or Drones?

SR71 decommission in the 1990s.

I've controlled about everything. Mostly military, including:

Uh-1

AH-1

H-60

H-46

H-53se & d

H-47

A-10s

F-18s

F-14 or two

C-130

lots of C-planes

Air Show planes

Foreign Military planes

Wierdest was probably the Russian IL-76s that brought supplies into Iraq when I was there. Those MFers sometimes didn't listen to instructions. I did pull one IL-76 pilot out of his plane and offer to pistol-whip his dumbass after he tried to land on about 20 Marines and Sailors on a closed Runway. They were know to drink while flying.
