Would not have ejected over the city.

I wanted to like these but so far, I've had 3 and none keep anything hot after more than an hour or 2 tops. Or cold. I've filled it with ice and not even a few hours later it's just water.

I was really surprised to learn the other day that a B-1B can carry more boom than a B-52.

I'd rather they spend money on a B-1 loitering around, dropping ordinance on Daesh targets than us sending men and women over there to fight on the ground. This cuts the risk of American lives down quite a bit especially when you consider close quarters fights, IED's and other casualties from engagements with the…

Keeping in mind that this environment is very low risk for US aircraft

Why don't the media call them the sexy bombers? Or, the fast bombers. Or, how about the carrier eaters.

hasn't gotten out to play much? You know its the most used combat aircraft by far since the 1998 date you threw out right? In Kosovo, 25% of the weapons dropped while flying 1% of the missions. In Iraq, 7 B-1s struck more targets than all 3 carrier battle groups combined, and dropped 43% of her precision guided…

Sure.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,

Lots of people have been commenting on this article being one thing or another, and I think they are missing one of the biggest take away points from this article. Tyler, I personally know three of the guys who are going to be Iraq's first Viper drivers, and they are awesome men, amazing pilots and very dedicated to…

"Really goes against itself because this incident wouldn't have happened if a U-2 didn't fly over the airport in the first place."

Alright, let me try and clear up some confusion here. A U-2 has a filed flight plan, from one navigational aid to another. Many of these Nav-aids are located on or near airports. This U-2…

Please don't report on stuff like this without any understanding of what's going on.

Helicopter refuelling terrifies me. Air-to-air refuelling is scary enough, but if you add WHIRLING BLADES OF DEATH close to a hose full of fuel...

It's not that bad, unless you start getting fuels spray across you windshield...

Loudest flyby you will ever see is a b-1 flyby too...

KIR 97!

I remember the Superbowl at Jerry's World in Arlington TX. I was at a super bowl party at a neighbor's house and the 4 F-18 Hornets doing the flyover flew right over his house at less than 1,000 ft. Then turning around a seeing 30-45 seconds later there they were flying over the stadium 20 miles away. then another…

I wonder if I can get a flyover set up for one of my daughter's dance events.

The F10 is a far more subdued design than the E60, but it doesn't suffer for it. The tail is a definite improvement over the E60, which appeared too tall and narrow a lot of the time. My 535d also had the M-Sport package, which includes 19-inch wheels and a new aero kit. It's very M5-esque and aggressive, which is…
