Sure, a B-1 bomber. Saw one at an airshow at the old Richards-Gebauer Airbase when the plane was brand new. Most fantastic plane I had ever seen. Beautiful lines. They had it roped off and armed guards around it. I'm very sure the guards were not kidding around when they had to ask people not to push on the ropes.
One of the first stealth bombers did a fly over there. Crowd of thousands went wild. Used to go to all the airshows there. It was only 10 miles straight down the road from our house. Still go to Whitman when they're not too busy to do the airshows.
AH yes the ol R-G airshows, got many a sunburn there.
yea I remember when they had the F-117 do a fly over. The PA Announcer said that they were having trouble finding it on radar :-)
Okay will see what I have for B-1's look for it next Saturday night

Hey, mtngrl......long time. Good to hear that your son is short. Please let him know how proud we are of him, and his part in keeping all of us free and safe, as he helps teach the Iraqis about freedom. Thanks too to his whole family for their service.
Just now catching up to the Saturday Night Sortie.......
Riding in the nose has to be spookie. Thanks for the planes, alfa.
Hi Mylife:
I know it's been a long time, but I wonder if you can tell me who performs this song that you posted? I love the song! It's called Jerusalem's Ridge, but I'm not sure who the performer is.
Thanks! Awesome music!!!
