    The U-2

    Lockheed's connection with the CIA goes a way back Clarence "Kelly" Johnson Johnson designed the U-2 for the CIA in 1955. Clarence "Kelly" Johnson was instrumental in deciding the Groom Lake should be Area 51. He became an legendary figure in the Aviation industry, for his designs and his amazing organizational ability.

    From
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_51

    The Groom Lake test facility was established by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for Project Aquatone, the development of the Lockheed U-2 strategic reconnaissance aircraft in April 1955.

    As part of the project, the director, Richard M. Bissell, Jr., understood that, given the extreme secrecy enveloping the project, the flight test and pilot training programs could not be conducted at Edwards Air Force Base or Lockheed's Palmdale facility. A search for a suitable testing site for the U-2 was conducted under the same extreme security as the rest of the project.
    He notified Lockheed, who sent an inspection team out to Groom Lake. According to Lockheed's U-2 designer Kelly Johnson

    ... We flew over it and within thirty seconds, you knew that was the place ... it was right by a dry lake. Man alive, we looked at that lake, and we all looked at each other. It was another Edwards, so we wheeled around, landed on that lake, taxied up to one end of it. It was a perfect natural landing field ... as smooth as a billiard table without anything being done to it". Johnson used a compass to lay out the direction of the first runway. The place was called "Groom Lake".


    This is a great article on the man 'Head Skunk'

    And Disclosure Project witness Don Phillips claimed to have worked with Kelly at U-2 and the SR-71 Blackbird. He testified that we not only have extraterrestrial devices, but have also achieved tremendous technological advances from their study.
    When Steven Greer asked him: Do you know if Kelly Johnson knew of the UFO and ET issue at all?
    DP: Oh Yeah. I would say he did. But he was focused on developing a job. There were five people in the world of his caliber.

    The U-2 was flight tested at Groom Lake.
