ASME Student Chapter & ASME Chattanooga Section
                          are honored to present

                    Richard H. Graham, Col. USAF, (Ret)
              and ASME Distinguished Lecturer Program titled:

                   SR-71 BLACKBIRD AN ENGINEERING MARVEL

Imagine. It's 1960. But for the Boeing 707, the Douglas DC8 and the
Havilland Comet, most aircraft are still propeller air planes. Yet here you
are, a member of a design team for a super-secret jet.the SR-71.

The  Blackbird is one of the most magnificent military jets ever developed.
As  a  long-range strategic reconnaissance aircraft, it's capable of flying
at  speeds  over  Mach  3.2  (2100mph)  at  an altitude of 85,000 feet (~15
miles).

Our  speaker,  Col. Richard Graham flew  Blackbirds for over seven years on
recon  missions.  He was selected to be the Squadron Commander of the SR-71
unit  and  eventually  became  the Wing Commander at Beale AFB for both the
SR-71  and  U-2 aircraft.  With over 15 years of experience with the SR-71,
he  is  uniquely qualified to talk on the engineering design challenges and
capabilities of this aircraft.

When:    Wednesday, January 12, 2005,
             Reception starts at 6:00 pm    Lecture starts at 7:00 pm

Where:   Benwood Auditorium
             College of Engineering and Computer Science\
             University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (on Vine at Palmetto)

                       Free and Open to the Public:
Mark your calendars for this exciting program and bring a guest because the
talk will be interesting to students, future engineers, current engineers,
                             flyers and more.

  Arrive early and get an informal tour of the College of Engineering and
                             Computer Science.
