B-2 Stealth Bomber
Not the best video, but a very good illustration of the beauty of these aircraft.

Re: B-2 Stealth Bomber
Oh Matt, you're in lots of trouble mate. They're gonna come and cart you away in the middle of the night if you aint carefull you know!
The stealth bomber is still a classified project, pathetic aint it?

Re: B-2 Stealth Bomber
I've had the privilege of seeing a B2 land with F-16 escorts at fairford, was an unplanned fuel stop at the tattoo many moons ago
i also live under what seems the old ww2 flight path for Southampton airport so i get all the very low passes off the spits, hurricanes, Lancaster, AT-6 ect , had the spits dogfighting over the house for the anniversary was immense, pure porn! |

Re: B-2 Stealth Bomber
another over rated american aircraft, why build a multi-million dollar stealth aircraft that has to be escorted on bombing missions by f15's (non-stealth aircraft). to date the b2 has not taken a solo run, is it me or does that take the point away from the b2 needing to be stealth?
the b1 and b52 are the most impressive in the american arsonal, not only for their capabilities but the fact they will remain in service once the b2 has been decommissioned. however, we all know the british v bombers were far advanced for their day and the fact is nothing has yet been able to replace the avro vulcan. |

Re: B-2 Stealth Bomber
I only ever saw Lightnings on a few occasions when they were escorting a Vulcan for a flypast in London. I think their turnaround point was somewhere near our school.
Rictus is probably old enough to remember airshows when the planes didn't have to be miles from the spectators. So am I, and my favourite was an SR-71 doing a low pass on full reheat. Yards of flame sticking out of the back and a vibration that tried to re-arrange your internal organs - awesome! The video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N31eEXjNAUU really doesn't do it justice. |
