One word: AMAZING!!! Man do I love that plane! Hey Chief, a quick B-2 story. I was at home (parents place, before I moved, about 6 years ago). Parents home is in the landing pattern for Willow Grove NAS, in PA. Air Show was going on that weekend, BUT no word on any "special appearances" by "special aircrafts" (i.e stealths). Didn't plan on being home, but was and with all the planes going overhead (we live 3 air miles away), didn't give any thought, UNTIL I heard this LOUD (and I mean LOUD) jet engine. I run out front and what goes overhead of the house not more than a half-mile above......yep, the B-2! Unannounced to be at the show. And I didn't have my camera!!

. Now, I did see the plane in person years ago, when they named one "Spirit of PA" at WIllow Grove, but it didn't fly anywhere as close as it did that day. I'll never forgive myself for not having my camera handy!!!

Chief, wonderful pics!

Great pics AFChief! We live fairly close - Kansas side of state line. How do you like your tungsten shade? I never thought I'd want anything other than black, but when I saw a tungsten GT live and in person, the world changed that day. We're so glad we got the tungsten GT.

Hey Chief, thank you VERY MUCH for the picture. I got chills when I saw it. Haven't seen this plane since they had the memorial at the base for it. SIMPLY AWESOME!!! Thanks again.
