We had a Pratt Whitney J58 motor (SR-71) as well as a couple early rocket motors xlr-11 and xlr-99 (X1 &X15) at our A&P school on loan from NASA. Cool stuff!!
 The Instructors at the College grew up in the CA Central Valley and are good friends with Chuck Yeager. Mr Yeager, came to the College to hang out with out graduating class for a morning and shared a lot of super cool flying stories from his days in aviation.

Cool experience...
