"Though I fly through the Valley of Death, I shall fear no evil...for I am at 80,000 feet and climbing."—Sign at the entrance to the U.S. Air Force's SR-71 base at Kadena, Japan

Actually Kadena is on Okinawa.
I didn't know the Blackbirds flew from there...

One old joke I remember describing a conversation between an American pilot and an annoyingly pompous traffic controller:

Controller: Haven't you ever flown to Frankfurt before?
Pilot: No. My dad did, but he didn't land.

"Angels 80" (the Air Force jargon for that alttude) sounds like a great movie title.
