we go to the beach near Pensacola Naval  Base every year and I would always go to the Museum. Now the base. is closed unless you have a military ID

Rumor has it that the Bone (B-one or B-1) will eventually be replaced at Ellesworth by the B-21,

We went to Ft Rucker last year to see the Army Aviation Museum. It was closed but you could get a temporary ID. Filled out an application. They ran a background and took a photo. Took about 30 minutes. About the as as buying a gun.

I see B1s flying over here headed east every now and then. usually a pair. And sometimes refueling. I can tell by the sound of them that they're not commercial jets. And they are usually at about 8-10,000.

My brother in law's dad was a B 25 pilot in WWII.  He still has the log books.  The P 61 is a cool airplane.
