This is the first live one, I've ever seen. We had one in our museum in Clearwater Beach Florida, a plaster cast of one, found maybe 60 years ago. :) AWESOME!

:D You could see the pilots ejecting right at the beginning, when the canopy went. Absolutely amazing. For ooh and ahh, it will always be the Blackbird, for me. Watching them take off, then "step on the gas" and instantly vanish, leaving a couple of sonic booms in their wake, always blew me away :O Never saw the B2s do "touch and goes". They might be just as awesome. Still a damned shame to lose one :'(

om3ga3, you are so right. This stupid film was made so long after Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We knew FULL well what the bomb did to people, even our pathetic little (thank God) bombs that we dropped to end the Japanese engagement. THere was a horrific amount of photographic information about what they did. If you ever have the opportunity to rent a Japanese DVD called "Black Rain", do so. It shows you in graphic detail what it was like, during and after. This includes the many who survived, unscathed, and seemingly unscathed. It is a true lesson in what an atom bomb, even a little one megaton one, can do. Realize that the ones these idiots NOW have are just a tad bigger. The ones we used were survivable, but we didn't know what we had. Duck and cover? Only in a concrete bunker. Once you see the light, well, there goes your flesh, unless you are very far away. Best place to be is right under.

Awesome! Incredible production values. I would hope it would get thru to the F-ing morons, but from what I have learned from them over the years, they have to plow into a bunch of people of their cohort [mates, buddies], to get thru to them. We are all better off, when they take themselves out, before harming anyone else. But we have to be on the watch for them, just in case.
