      If ypu can see the end of the Runway it's not 'Fog' just a little hazy. You could see that guy on approach 35 sec before touchdown.

      Depends on fuel load. When fully fueled both would be in the ground

    I am no expert but I often wonder how a target so large, detectable and slow can be expected to successfully carry out a mission over enemy territory in todays world of supersonic interceptor's and surface to air missiles? I'm sure they are fitted with all manner of electronic gadgets but I cant believe these beauties can be hidden. Hopefully they will never be needed to perform their designed tasks.
