    Half way through the video, imagine being a farmer and looking up.

      I am still in awe that that thing can fly.

      Is that a T-38 on the starboard wing of the B-2?

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          Cool video.

          (at the 3:00 mark, I think the guy drops his phone. Maybe better that he should concentrate on flying the plane than taking videos. :P)

            One of the instructors I worked with was a B2 pilot.

            He flew 35+ hour missions - including the first that delivered bombs.

            I flew with him quite a few times when we were flying just to fly. I never asked him much about B2 details, I figured just about everything was classified.

            But he was able to confirm that the plane was originally designed for 3 airmen. They eliminated the middle seat, and left an open space there. For long duration flights the pilots went to Walmart and bought a chaise lounge to put in the open spot so they could take more comfortable naps.
