please tell me we aren’t using the B-2 for something an F-15 or F-18 can do?

Mo’s hideout looks like the bottom of a Shake’n Bake bag.

Very impressive. In P-3s, a twelve hour mission is outside the norm, and that’s with three pilots, two flight engineers, and two navigators. Did a 13.2 once because the PPC wanted to set a record. He got an ass-chewing instead. Of course, the B-2 is completely pre- and post-flighted by another crew. In P-3s you do your own 4 hour preflight and 2 hour postflight.

Everything has limitations. Even heros. Can someone clarify what potty facilities might be aboard these planes??

Inquiring minds can be burdensome, at times.

The pilots may be honorable, but the guy who ordered them to bomb Libya is a vile pr!ck.

IT’s good PR for the B-2’s to fly the first strike. It helps justify the cost of these birds. It’s not really true that they rarely leave their hangars. It’s quite common to see them coming and going when you drive along Highway 50 near Whiteman Air Force Base.

At $2.1bn, they are the most expensive warplanes in the world and rarely leave their climate-controlled hangars.

Well, glad we used them, then. Otherwise, who needs 2.1 billion dollar hangar queens?

A Sunni or a Shiite??
