We should put some B-2’s and F-22’s in place for bombing runs on Pyongyang.

I soooooo enjoy these kind of photos.

We were in Boston about 8 years ago for the Fourth of July (a great place to be for that celebration, I recommend). As we were walking across the Commons, our daughter yelled "Look at that!!".

We all looked up in time to see a B-2 lumbering along the down town sky on a fly by. The thing was enormous (and very quiet considering it's size)

It seems so unreal, doesn’t it? Even when you’ve actually seen one fly overhead you can hardly believe it.

[lefty-lie-spy]

She’s awesome, amazing, and beautiful.

I’ve heard that it is so un-airworthy, it couldn’t fly without computers.

This is not exactly on topic for this thread but it is interesting:

And if you had seen one of those back in the late 80s you would have sworn that you saw a UFO. And everyone would have thought you were crazy, since it didn’t show up on radar. I wonder how many of the UFO’s today are actually USAF.

[R. Scott]

That’s why it has computers.

The thing was enormous

True dat.

Mrs. F & I were driving through CA's Central Valley and were surprised by the size of one banking overhead.

obama would bomb Tampa, Florida before he would bomb Pyongyang.

Well, if Barry was running the program, this would be trying to fly on solar panels mounted on the wing(s). Uses waaaay too much fuel, you know!!

[Red_Devil 232]

I like the head on view! Nice!

[Clioman]

If Barry was running the program, it wouldn’t be flying at all. Too war-like.

I saw one as it was banking over Brunswick. After it straightened out it became invisisble.
