Yeah, the Blackbird was designed to rattle a bit due to heat expansion. I hadn't heard about it leaking fuel that way, but it makes sense. Seriously though, what an amazing plane. They flew from New York to London in less than two hours, including a slow-down to refuel, over 1000 missiles launched against them with no hits, horizontal flight of 85,068 feet and speed of 2,193 miles per hour in sustained flight, and designed with a slide rule! I feel deprived that they are no longer in service.
