Those four glowing afterburners against a Vegas dusk lighting - priceless !
-
I’m a 24yr USAF Veteran. While stationed in Texas for 11yrs I had the privilege to maintain and test B-1Bs. It was awesome!!!
-
My God this aircraft is underrated in the looks department... stunning
-
Without a doubt one of the most beautiful and awesome planes ever! I saw one do a fly by at an airshow in Oshkosh WI. Flying over runway at about 500 ft, it suddenly went almost straight up until it disappeared from sight! That is incredible for a fighter plane, but a bomber doing it was nearly beyond belief!! Makes you proud to be an American.

Great video! 👏👏👏👏👏👏 No stupid robot voices. Zero dialogue. Silence is golden.
-
Such a beUtiful aircraft. It's hard to believe that the B-1B lancer is a 40 years old bomber.
-
I was traveling in west Texas in the middle of nowhere when a B-1 flew in front of me really low and wings back. Years later still get a thrill remembering that!
-
My father was one of the designers of this plane with Rockwell out of Pico Rivera. Rather than stealth, it was designed to hug the contours of the earth at supersonic speeds. The new B-21 bomber is taking some lessons from this.

Never ceases to amaze me. The more potent the instrument of death; the more beautiful it is. The Katana being a case in point.
-
Still one of the most gorgeous and majestic flying machines ever built.💖

What a beautiful bird that B-1 is, just a sleek, incredible flying machine!! As a long-time GA pilot, sometimes I look back and think, if I had it all to do over again, I would have joined the military so I could fly some of those magnificent birds! The young, with their fast reactions and physically able bodies are a natural pick for those aircraft that fly high and nearly 1,000 mph and the missions they are made for, all I can do now is watch them, marvel at them, and thank all who have a part in keeping them in the air, for their service in protecting and defending our Country! I've loved the swept-wing design since I admired, fell in love, and flew in the Concorde in about 1984 or so. The "Bone" as they lovingly call the Lancer, is about as sexy as a bomber can be! Happy Landings!

I'AM GLAD REAGAN PUT THIS BOMBER BACK INTO FULL PRODUCTION AND WE NOW HAVE A FLEET OF THEM.BEAUTIFUL DESIGNED AIRCRAFT
-
I've had the pleasure of getting up close and personal with a bunch of these working air shows for fun around the country the last 3 years and when I tell you if they do a full afterburner takeoff you feel the ground shake a mile away and hear car alarms going off
-
Probably one of the most beautifully designed aircraft ever built.
-
The sunset takeoff w/ Vegas in the background is a WINNER!!
-
forget it capabilities ,its the most beautiful looking aircraft ever designed
-
Next to the SR-71 Blackbird, this the most beautiful jet powered aircraft ever.
-
Lived across the street from Nellis. Engine tests at 3 am were brutal...
-
That Vegas departure at twilight : Eyegasm !
-
Maybe the best looking plane ever created.
