Thanks for the link.  Nice shots.  Particularly like the shots of the B-17 in flight.

Awesome thread.  I always thought Whiteman had all the b-2s turns out Edwards has one for testing.  Probably radar testing of some type.  Very Cool.

GD it. When I was all of about 8 years old I read a book in the school library about Edwards, written from as if the author was telling the reader what the reader does next at Edwards in his (the reader's) USAF career.

I should have listened...

... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

No doubt, beautiful pictures!  :aok


No 117's?

Heard a C-17 start a takeoff from about 500 yards away.  What a loud high pitched sound.

Not sure what you are going with there.

No 117's?

F-117s were retired in 2008 I believe most of them were scrapped.
