Skunkworks deserves a true “Thank You” for what they do.

Great! But what’s it doing over the Pacific? Are we attacking Australia?

Several years ago I was on the second floor of our condo where we used to live when one of those flew by.....or one like it...it was awesome! (and, I NEVER use the word “awesome.”)

When I realize that probably some 20-25 year old “KID” is flying that ..... it sure challenges my perspective on my own life!

I just get all tingly when I think about the platforms in the bullpen for future production to keep us ahead of the pack.

You never know. Everywhere, there may be muslims that need protection.

I believe they is a squadron at Guam, at least that is where the first one crashed.

Highly unlikely! More like 35 to 50 year old lifer who is as professional and decent as they come. Not to say that 20 year olds are not, but you don’t sit in a (THAT) bird until you have finished college and the Academy. Then you cut your teeth for a decade to get the chance.

The B2 takes my breath away. I’ve been lucky enough to see quite a few flyovers. It never gets old.
