January 11, 20241 yr we don't need to be broadcasting pictures of our strategic bomber mishaps on the internet. danger knows better than that!

Its a commercial satellite service. The pictures were aleady posted by Air Force troops to social media the night it happened. We allowed a Chinese balloon to overfly these areas un-hindered. Go yell at some other clouds.

January 11, 20241 yr Well, that puts a new spin on sticking it on "brick 1". Probably where they left the gear, which is why you see the charred molten metal streak starting one ship length past the lip of the underrun. That "motherhood" boi.... bigger Pk than the pointy-end stuff in this business anymore. *whistles past the graveyard*

January 11, 20241 yr @BashiChuniis just upset that the loss of this B-1 will free up some serious cash to fight his Russian pals.
January 12, 20241 yr RUMINT in the bomber community is a very serious EP (jet on fire) prior to the approach. Weather was an eyelash above ILS mins. First day back flying after Christmas/New Years. Helluva first day back…
