on Saturday when I was in the backyard building a fence (which is the worst thing btw). They were pretty high up but still made their presence known. So much America I damn near stopped what I was doing and said the Pledge of Allegiance. Were you up there T-Bird?

It's crazy how loud they are too; not sure how they can sneak up on targets when you can hear them miles away!

Usually by the time someone hears them it's too late

It's a high altitude bomber that delivers a precision payload. That's how you get fricked without knowing it.

They're on their way to bomb Texas as part of Operation Jade Helm.

Can neither confirm nor deny

Amazing aircraft. It's funny, I've been working around 'em for over 2 years and it's still an arresting sight to see one flying around the base

Aren't the B-2's based in MO?

That's what "they" wanted you to think you saw.

There used to be one that would fly over for Thunder Over Louisville (the opening to the Kentucky Derby Festival). It was crazy because you'd see it coming but you would hear it until it was clear down river. Very easy to see how it'd catch you off guard at night.

Yep, I'm going to an airshow at Whiteman AFB this weekend. I'm hoping the Stealth's are on display.

No better way to get the crowd going at a Mizzou game than to see this sight (haven't done it for several years for some reason but always awesome)

Obama cancelled them nationwide after the sequester made him choose between flyovers at games or monthly family vacays. He chose the vacays.

Weird, that was several days ago and no reports of KU being bombed. If these things are based in MO, how did they fail their bombing mission?

Either they missed their targets or no one cared that KU got bombed.

This is an important question
