We had B-1's at the JB air show bout 4 years ago now. They flew 2 B-1 bombers into JFK under darkness and unannounced. My father is a civilain working for the NYPD so he caught wind of it and relayed to me. Which in turn I asked him to try and get them. Well he got them. Some nice shots too. I just need to get around to editing them. Though atm i'm more focused on getting my recent trip all sorted and edited and posted on site.

Don't lie, you know you just really want to go to see the KC10 up close and personal! :borat:
Were they opening up the B-1 so that people could climb up and get inside the cockpit area? It's a pretty tight fit, but it's pretty cool, and pretty amazing to see how "ancient" everything looks up there..

I do adore the KC-10...triholers are my favorite aircraft to shoot (DC10 KC10 MD11 L1011). I was quite happy to see that the KC-10 at McChord this weekend was largely left by itself. I'd love to catch a ride in one.
