Spirit? Maybe with all the money their spending on this maybe they can give it a better name.
Liberator, Flying Fortress, Dauntless, Vindicator, those were some cool bomber names. Spirit? Like in teen spirit. What a stupid name for an amazing plane. Sounds like skirt work was responsible!

LOL don’t forget Hustler!

Or, seriously, Peacemaker. What a great name for a bomber.

And RE the 2-man crew, on a mission lasting 20+ hours, might be nice to have a 2nd person who can take the controls for a bit...
